Can't Stop: You're story sounds similar to mine. I was a binge drinker. I drank away my anxiety and depression. When I finally wised up and got sober my depression took a hold of me. Almost 2 years being sober and I'm still trying to deal with my depression. I do think it's possible the anxiety and depression you're dealing with can be (like others here mentioned) just a normal part of your early recovery.

I'm proud of you for keeping sober. I know how hard it is. And when that thought or feeling comes over you that may be, just tonight, may be I can have a few, just get a little buzz, just tonight......and the thinking. The obsessing. It can get you. It sounds to me like you're on the right path and in really very good shape.

hugs
