Great feed! I am almost 4 months sober and have been suffering from GAD too. I've had it for a few years and took Cymbalta for a while but was still drinking all the time so I have no idea if it worked. I do however know that my anxiety only got worse toward the end of my drinking and only being drunk helped....but we can all see the problem in that! So now, I have to uncover where the anxiety stems from and that means feeling! I'm now seeing a therapist and started Lexapro 2 weeks ago. I know the mess can take a month or so to help so in the mean time I am learning coping techniques....meditation, deep breathing and talking about it! Good luck and remember....you don't have to drink over it!
