Is my situation hopeless?

I've been on medication for about five years. I've also been seeing a psychiatrist for that period of time. And while I've been on several different medications.....I have yet to find one that works well for me. I'm on risperidone now.....and it does get rid of alot of the anxiety, but I still feel anxious in some social situations and I still feel depressed sometimes. I'm currently taking two different medications for my anxiety, risperidone, and Luvox.

I desperately hope to find the right combination of medication soon as I feel that I'm not getting the most out of life under the condition that I'm in. I know it will take some effort on my part as well. But I'm hoping to find the right kind of medication so that I can cope with my anxiety easier.

I guess I know that my situation is not hopeless. I just felt the need to get this off my chest and hear your opinions. Btw, I know many of you out there are struggling as well. And I want to let you know that I am rooting for you with all my heart. No one should have to suffer the way we do. I wish you all the best. Any comments are appreciated.

Thank you. Maybe I am expecting too much from the meds. I just know that what I'm on currrently has made me feel completely different than the other meds I've taken previously. And that gives me hope that there is the right one out there for me.

Thanks for your comment.
