> Nardil has a strong serotonergic effect. If SSRI's don't help anxiety (or make it worse), you might want to try a gabaergic drug like gabapentin or perhaps low dose of seroquel.

> LinkadgeI tried Lexapro for 3 months which increased anxiety and have now switched to Celexa for past 10 days. I take Lorazepam also. But my anxiety is awful. I have gone up to 20mg Celexa for past 3 days. Just wondering if you thing Seroquel would help anxiety and is it ok to take it with lorazepam. If I took a low dose at night would it help me throughtout the day also? I was on Prozac for many years and it stopped working as well so thats why the switch to Lexapro and now Celexa. But have to say that Prozac probably helped me better than both of these so far. I mostly have depression but anxiety seems to be moving right up there!!
Thanks for any suggestions.Karen
