thanks for all the responses! I am already taking lexapro (10 mg) and have been on it for some time but (naughty naughty) I was taking it when I was drinking so now that I'm not drinking, it might just be taking some time for the lexapro to properly take effect.
so is everyone else continuing working through early sobriety?
and ArtFriend - must say, out of all my friends who are attorneys (all live in NYC like me), and I have a lot, and they are all high-powered and very successful, literally all drink heavily. I'm the first to go fully sober and their reactions were "how can you possibly deal with the terribleness of being a NYC lawyer WITHOUT alcohol?" Gives you a good idea of what being a lawyer is like.
