It's just a thought, but have you tried a drug called Memantine? It's a newish drug (approved in 2003) licensed for Alzheimer's disease.
I was fortunate enough to have been given the chance to try Memantine about 3 years ago, while I was on an unrelated drug trial.
I didn't see any improvement in the condition which I was given the Memantine for; however, I did notice that it helped my anxiety drastically I just felt so much calmer and my anxiety just disappeared (I was taking Prozac with it at the time)!
Trouble is, it seems to be very difficult to get hold of here in Britain - neither my GP nor my psychiatrist will even consider prescribing it to me.
It is available on the net but it's not cheap + I'm rather wary of buying medication over the internet.
I'm not sure if this post is any good to you, but it may be worth considering Memantine if you haven't already tried it.
