Yeah, that's the problem I had on Lexapro. It intensified anxiety rather than helping it. I was hoping there might be another AD that didn't do that, but it may not work. I'd frankly rather deal with depression than anxiety and mixed episodes. I've spent a lot of my life depressed and can work through it better than anxiety, which is something I rarely had to deal with prior to starting medication.
