Has anyone had any experience with Cymbalta for anxiety and GAD?

I took it at 60mg and it didn't help anxiety just back pain for me. Was on benzos at the time also. Phillipa

I was on 60 mg for depression. I also had/have anxiety but my main problem is depression. It did help both my depression and anxiety. I think for me anxiety and depression go together. I don't know it is the same as GAD.

It worth a try. I know you have been searching for a med for quite some time now. Are you on anything now?

I switched to Cymbalta from Zoloft for GAD. Started at 60, went to 90, now back down to 60. Combined with mindfulness meditation, exercise, and several vitamins and supplements it has worked great -- I'm in 98% remission.
