You are not alone. Over the past 4 plus years, I have faced the death of my father to Alzeiheimers, a horrible bitter divorce in which I lost everything, bankruptcy, moving away from my children and loss of my professional career...through all of this I developed severe depression and horrible socail anxiety...the anxiety I had been dealing with my whole adult life, but just kinda ran away from things when it was bad..not it is debilitating....I have been the route with all the serzone, paxil,zoloft, wellbutrin which all made me crazy with side effects (except the serzone which did nothing)...this summer I had good luck with a change to remeron, a low dose of effexor xr and ativan..it worked great until I thought I was ready to tackle a professional position and move...I fell apart in weeks....it was like everything quit working....I resigned and returned to my Mother's house......I sit here now, with a Masters and life time of experiance and unable to use it..thinking about applying for disability..and hoping the meds. kick in again. Of course my psy doc will not see me early....I know that I would be lost without some type of benzo...the ativan is definately starting to poop out on me..I want to try klonopin ...of course if the almighty Psy. doc will let me....I have had luck with Xanax in the past but in the long run it ended up like the Ativan....now I am just lost in PA.........

Good luck...
