Anxiety only from relationship issues

I've been on and off Lexapro since 2004 with excellent results but I relapse only when dealing with relationships issues. I could lose my job, my house and not get anxious. When negative stuff appears in the relationship, I get bad anxiety. Part of it is that I've had bad luck with long term relationships. How can I control obsessive negative thoughts,? Only Lexapro seems to calm me down.

The problem with lexipro is that if I stay on longer than 1 year I become a zombie without feelings. I become indifferent to emotions

Why not take the Lexapro on a daily basis? We all have our anxiety triggers. For me, it's travel and being alone. So, I take my meds on a daily basis and know that in those situations, I might need some extra care. It's okay to know your weaknesses and prepare for them. We all have them!
