Schatje, since you already have a pdoc, can you share your anxiety symptoms with him and see what he suggests? If you are seeing the pdoc for other symptoms, it really is important that you also tell him about your anxiety symptoms, because that could help guide what meds he prescribes for your other symptoms too. For example, if you are also depressed, depression+anxiety may call for a different anti-depressant than depression with no anxiety. So yes, definitely tell your pdoc about your anxiety symptoms!

Good luck.
