Which specific, modern medicines have you recently seen produce any of the following side-effects:
Interference with rational thought.
Chemical dependence/addiction.
Any other words of caution about medications prescribed recently for anxiety or for anti-delusional symptoms?
I'm trying to avoid consideration of older drugs, because I hear that there has been much technological advancement in this field in a short period of time.
Bonus question: Any prescription drug recommendations for anxiety or anti-psychotics?

Look at this site: http://www.helpguide.org/mental/anxiety_medication_drugs_treatment.htm
It includes the different types and common side effects. If you want to look up specific side effects for each drug, I would reccommend using the www.mentalhealth.com medication section.
And this is a good site for the antipsychotic drugs: http://www.npi.ucla.edu/ssg/antipsychotic.htm

I take lithium and risperdal with no side effects. After trying almost everything else out there I seen side effects from itching and vomiting, to becoming suicidal and completely flipping out. It took a couple of years of trying different meds to finally find a good mix for me. Good Luck!

I have read some litterature about panic attacks. But they allways seem to have a more scientific approach and that is nothing I need in my struggle to survive those horrible panic attacks. This is a "hand on" and very practical book. I felt it was written to me. I am sure that you are going to feel the same.
Joe Barry writes exactly how I think. The examples are perfectly described. And the method is genius. I recommend this book and thanks Joe Barry for writing it. It changes your life

I know that recently they have discovered that "zyprexa" causes an alarming and dangerous amount of weight gain. I read it in the newspaper.
