That's when it helps to have someone assist you in putting the pieces of your puzzle together. Depending on the specific content of your fears, there are psychotherapies and life-coaches that can help with this.

That's also when it is time to commit to pursuing an effective biological treatment. Don't give up. Your time will come. The new antidepressant, vilazodone (Viibryd) might have important anxiolytic properties that are yet under-appreciated. I guess we will have to wait until enough people are treated with this drug to be sure.

Have you been diagnosed as having an anxiety disorder?

- Generalized Anxiety Disorder
- Social Anxiety Disorder
- OCD
- PTSD

I found that my depression had severe social anxiety as a component. I also found that I was plagued with intrusive thoughts and feelings of guilt. A single antidepressant is capable of successfully treating all of these symptoms at once.

Good Luck. Stay positive and constructive. Be resolved to find a successful treatment for the conditions that are now causing you pain and an inability to function effectively in the world.
