I’ve tried celexa for 6 months without feeling any different, i tried Prozac for a few months and most recently I tried buspar for a month and didnt feel a difference... can anyone please help me..

If you search with "NICE anxiety," you can read the recommendations of an official health agency in the UK. They rank 3 treatments according to their demonstrated effectiveness for most patients. Medicine (generally SSRs) is ranked 2 behind therapy (CBT). Self-help based on CBT is 3.

About your question, there's a lot of interest in esketamine, recently approved by the FDA for depression. Details in this answer, with other things including DBT, a therapy that some people with anxiety are saying is better for anxiety than CBT.

I would find a discussion group or groups for anxiety problems, talk to people that also has this, what worked for them and then go talk to your doctor.  Does your doctor know you suffer from this?
