In reply to Cymbalta for social anxiety?, posted by Rocket Jackson on August 8, 2005, at 16:10:16
Well, I started out on Effexor for bipolar2 depression and GAD and when that pooped out after a year, the next choice was Cymbalta as it's also an SNRI. Its effect for me was more subtle and longer in its onset, but the side effects were almost insignificant. I'd say it's helped a lot. I take 60 mg at night.
I also take xanax .5 mg as required for panic and anxiety (less so now than ever before) and Topamax as a mood stabiliser.
Good luck,
