Every snri/ssri i tried for severe gad jas had bad side effects. i need something. is brintellix or viibryd (vilazodone hydrochloride) good? are they well tolerated?

Go another route: Your profile indicates that you are taking caffeine and an antidepressant for generalized anxiety disorder. I understand you have tried several serotonergic agents for generalized anxiety. It may be time to try something else. Caffeine of course can cause significant anxiety. ( and blood pressure issues )
