Depression and Anxiety

[Cricket654]

I have been experiencing severe depression and anxiety for about a week and a half.  It is driving me crazy and makes me want to isolate at home.  I would love to hear any suggestions you guys might have.  Is there a better diet I should be working on or supplements.  I am currently on 160mg of Geodon, 200mg of Zoloft, 5mg of Abilify, 2mg Klonopin, 60mg of Propranolol.  I also suffer from major tremors that are pretty much constant and very noticeable to others.  I have a hard time driving because I get tremors in my legs and feet.  The tremors have gotten worse over time.  I could really use some support right now and any advice that you may have.

The tremors could be dystonia which is a temporary movement disorder caused by some medications including antipsychotics. The Klonopin and Propanolol should be treating that. Propanolol is a beta blocker so that sometimes can cause depression itself as it slows down heart rate. Think when the depression and anxiety began and your psychiatrist could see whether medications aren't treating it or may potentially have worsened it and adjust and/or change your medication as appropriate.
