For anxiety Cymbalta or Celexia? I was on Zoloft but getting off of it. Causing too much dizziness. I was on Diazapam for 30 years. Think it outlived it's benefits for anxiety.

Thanks in advance

Hello, I take Cymbalta in the morning for depression control, not anxiety. Xanax is taken at the same time to keep way Anxiety.

Thanks much. Has the combination been working for you? I ask because I take Diazapam and just started the Cymbalta. I know we are all different but just curious.

hello! Pretend I'm an idiot and tell me why diazapam is RX for you, because I think you felt Cymbalta was for anxiety, but for me it is antidepressant. :)

Cymbalta is also used for Anxiety. Says so right on the Scrip sheet from the Pharmacy. I have been on Diazapam for 42 years, it is no longer working. Imagine it has run it's course. Thanks for touching base. I appreciate you.

Yes, antidepressant sometimes work in tamdem with anxiety medications. You're right about that. Anxiety and depression are two sides of the same coin, aren't they.
