You have full blown hypothyroidism.How long have you been taking levothyroxine? What was your TSH and T4 level when you were first diagnosed? Your levothyroxine dose is very high, so it's very confusing on why your levels are so high. Have you been taking your medication daily? Without food? Your high levels will and can, cause high anxiety levels. If my TSH goes above 5, I start to get horrible anxiety, so I feel so bad for you right now.
