Xanax does help and it is the best amongst the Benzos but still makes me sleepy.

Like me, do you find that SSRIs or SNRIs increase muscle tension? I mean they do help with anxiety but I feel as if they do it by increasing the tension that holds the anxiety in check. I think this is what my own body was doing on its own before it fell apart.

And what you said about cortisol levels is interesting too, because ECT's adverse side-effect can be a lot worse for people with high levels of cortisol. I don't know if they checked my cortisol levels but I had to give up on ECT because of side effects. May be I should have mine checked out too.

Please let me know if that proves to be a clue.
