Hey there!
Just wanted to let you know...I was unsuccesfully treated for depression a good while back unsuccessfully with an ssri alone. Although lithium is usually used for Bipolar disorder, it can also be used to augment the effects of an ssri. so it might be worth a try. Not sure from an anxiety point of veiw though. I found lithium to be very mind-numbing, but was on a high dose for BP disorder. So you may tolerate one of the ssri's that suits u best and a low dose of lithium. Definatly worth asking your p.doc about.
Good luck, take care and keep us posted!
Tay
