Help with Anxiety treatments?

I am 17 and have been suffering from social anxiety, general anxiety, ADD and a learning disability in reading wrighting and math for 11 years. I have tried lots of medications most recently zoloft. I am on leraxipam taken as needed. My anxiety goes through stages of me feeling almost normal and then I sink down lower then I have ever been. I feel like I am starting to fall back wards again and I think its time to try a new medication or something. I try to eat healthy I never eat fast food I try to eat alot of fruits and veggies I take vitamin B every day And that really helps but I need something more .I am going to start to taking a yoga class I'm in therapy once a month. I feel like I have been doing every thing I can do. If you have any natural suggestions I would love that or any medications that have worked for you or really any thing I will try anything. I know it will never go away but this is just to much for me. so anything you have I will try.

    Anxiety is a normal, natural and sometimes necessary emotion. It is an adaptive response to stress or danger. Anxiety helps us cope with tense situations, and can motivate us to work harder or stay focused on solving an important problem.
