I have extreme anxiety constantly and need help with meds.  I'm currently taking Buspar, Seroquel, Remeron, Prazosin and Clonedin, but ever since I went off of Cymbalta a month and a half ago I've been experiencing extreme anxiety all the time.  Should I go back on an SNRI or try an SSRI?  any suggestions?

    I have Escitalopram (which is an SSRI I think) which really helps me to cope with my anxiety, but everyone is different and I think that with anti-depressants, its just a case of getting the right one for you so I would go back to your doctor and ask their opinion.

      I also have extreme anxiety! Like to the point of not going many places in public and I have panic attacks! My doctor just put me on Wellbutrin! I looked up user reviews and it had really good ones so I'm hopeful! I don't think it has all the nasty side affects others can have!
