panic/anxiety disorder, depression, and insomnia go hand in hand with one another. i too have suffered with this for may years and have finally found the right meds for me and they have worked miracles. i too had to go threw a number of them before i found a combo that worked.

i take effexor xr 150mg 2 times a day (anti-depressant with anti-anxiety qaulities also)
klonopin 1mg 3times a day
ambien(which now has generic) at night for sleep

lack of sleep makes all the other symptoms worse. so if
sleeping is a problem as doc about sleep aids too.
of course meds and doses vary person to person but these are some things you could ask about. hope you find relief soon. i know its hard to deal with sometimes.
