Flowers for the Queen, hope your doing better
Hug
Sorry to hear that you are dealing with so much...I had to up my doseage of cymbalta from 30 mg to 60 mg...I continue to try to read uplifting books etc. staying calm and peaceful has now become a full time job for me! funny, it used to happen naturally...oh, well... healing from hurt and betrayal takes a long time... and makes us feel very fragile and vulnerable...and every new problem and crisis seems too much to bear because we are just not strong enough yet... I've told people that.. my sister ,for example, always depended on me for help,advice, a shoulder to cry on...this year she's had some difficult things to deal with...but i just couldn't be there for her.. just listening to her troubles sent me into a complete tailspin...so i told her.. i just wasn't strong enough to be her shoulder to cry on.....
Prayer
It's no wonder you feel like you've taken 5 steps back.Your H's brother died and your daughter is struggling! Be kind to yourself,don't expect so much from yourself! Your doing a great job! You have been through a lot. Even if it's a few steps back,your still moving on! It's OK, your still doing great! Hang in There! It does get better!

Close Anxiety
I've had some anxiety issues for years, but didn't address them. I have been on and off Cymbalta since 2002, the death of my mom. I went back on Cymbalta over a year ago, and know I need to stay on it. I started taking Xanax as needed, a few years ago, for air travel. I discovered my H's one night stand on October 9, 2007. I now take Xanax XR 2x a day, along with the Cymbalta. I've felt better over the last 2 months, but this last week I have been really having a hard time.
