I've developed anxiety, depression and panic attacks while travelling in Asia. I am petrified to fly home. I used to suffer with lesser symptoms a year or so ago. Flying here was a breeze. I have been prescribed 

150mg sertraline in morning 

0.5 Xanax three times a day

0,5 Xanax as needed - taking about one or two extra a day

15mg ability (aripiprazole) at night 

4mg Rivotril (clonenazpan) at night 

I have also been prescribed Valium and dormicum (midazolam) to fly with plus being able to take up to an extra 4mg of Xanax on top of regular usage. 

This is sounds like a lot. I feel I need it. Is this mix okay?!

thank you for your help.

      Pharmacy and ask the pharmacist about your combo of meds , or your doc , u said you've seen a few then just call one of them an list all your meds and they will let you know , I'm pretty sure you can't mix so much anxiety meds at once , I know it's tough hang in there , go on YouTube and find Ron tucker , sermon called fear not....he has pretty bad anxiety and in that sermon he gives great advice , it's an hour long but it's very worth listening till end . 

       Wish you healing as i know how hard it can be .
