Hi Lynette,
I'm sorry that you have been suffering so much for so long. I'm not a Psychiatrist, but I work closely with several excellent ones, and I know that my favorite Psychiatrists would most likely say that you might be taking too much medication. I'd recommend that you get a new psychatric consultation to evaluate the meds. that you are taking.
Also, have you ever tried Cognitive-Behavioral therapy? Medications do not solve all problems, and CBT might be the missing link for you. You can find a therapist near your area by logging on to the Anxiety Disorders Association of America (ADAA) website.
Regards,
Jennifer L. Fee, Psy.D.
