If you need something stronger for anxiety, you can try:
-a benzo as needed
-buspar
-gabapentin or pregabalin
This would be in addition to your anti-psychotic.

Hi thanks for your advice,I tried gabapentin and pregablin years ago for the ME but unsuccessfully for that or my mental health.
I've also had risperadol and seroquel (couldn't handle side effects)which I really hoped would help.
I think your right about maybe needing an additional med to go with the anti psychotic.
I will discuss this with my pdoc thank you very much for your help
Take care
