All I can say is I'm in the exact same boat as you! I've suffered for 7 years now and I've tried everything. Doctors have no clue what's wrong with me either. Have you tried canabis at all? Have you tried exercing? I've heard that's really good for anxiety. I haven't tried it yet cause I cope by drinking to help my anxiety. Very dumb don't start that if you haven't already

I don't do Canabis makes me more anxious.. no I don't drink.. I would love to start excercising but I feel physically ill from this.. im on klonopin so I can't drink even if I wanted to.. when I did drink my anxiety was no existent though.. I don't know what to do.. I feel like im losing everything.. my husband left me too recently he couldn't handle it anymore n left me for another woman.. so that doesn't add to my stress.. n im living on my own for the first time n that scares me too..I can't imagine living like this for 7 years.. I will pray for u

It looks like you have already tried almost every anti-anxiety drug available on the market. In this case I would normally recommend using one of the last resort medicines - irreversible MAO inhibitors, e.g. phenelzine (Nardil). However, these substances can be lethal if combined with certain types of food and require a very strict diet (no cheese, no alcohol, no cured meat). Also, they cannot be combined with a lot of drugs normally available over the counter (e.g. nose drops or the majority of cold/flu mixes). For these reasons, this class of medicines is rarely used these days, and their usage is limited to patients who did not respond to SSRI/SNRI and tricyclics. The question that you need to answer yourself is - would you be willing to accept all of the limitations and adjust your lifestyle accordingly?
Also, getting the right drug solves only one part of the problem. You need to start a talking therapy - CBT can be very helpful in anxiety-related conditions.
I hope this helps!
