Paxil helped me. It helped me get help and start a program, AA meetings, etc. I've been sober for 14 months now and Paxil helped tremendously in warding off social phobia, anxiety and OCD which were big drinking triggers for me.
I now take a mood stabilizer which would also be worth looking into, but remember, some sort of program like AA is a must, meds alone won't solve the problem, but will help you through it.
