output: hello thank you for your detailed query and history with regards to your anxiety symptoms you have tried out sari selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor and sari serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor class of medications so I would like to suggest you try a tea tricyclic antidepressants class of antidepressants like amitriptyline 75 100 my dosulepine 100 my or nortriptyline 75 100 my they are indicated in people who have had partial results with sari or sari medications if you do not wish to try out the tea and coming back to your query about the three medicines the best results for anxiety will be with paroxetine between 12 my to 37 my and citalopram will also work fine at 20 my in addition to these you can also consider augmenting the action of these by adding mirtazapine 5 my at night I would like to suggest that you should consider reducing olanzapine to 5 my since you are not in hypomania and have depressive symptoms reduction to 5 my will make it an augmenting agent again for the antidepressant and also further help with your anxiety issues also just to mention some people do get benefit from having a few sessions of cut cognitive behavioral therapy from a clinical psychologist
