I can relate with the depression and anxiety. I have Bipolar type 2, and GAD pretty rough. Should definitely watch the benzos (xanax, etc). I've been taking them once a night as prescribed small dose and i have started going through tollerance withdrawls. Feel horirible, starting slow withdrawl next week. Antidepressants help quite a bit if you dont have a manic response. Get an appoitment with a psychiatrist and talk options over.
