    Cymbalta has been a nightmare, I need some answers and shared experiences.

Posted 30 June 2014 - 07:21 PM

The only thing that's getting me down is epigastric and chest pain. :(

Im just trying to trust that it will calm down over time - I just hate eating now and lying down is a nightmare.

 

its a slow and blighted process. I still have no sense of what I'll be left with in the long run - I guess we are all finding out.

 

actually the other thing that is making me feel blue is how stupid I feel - my cognitive processes are still a bit factured, wobbly and slow - I have intermittent zone-outs where i cant process info and become uncoordinated - hope it passes....oh well, its better than seeing phantom limbs attached to my body... LOL.

    I want my life back!

Time, AM, time......it takes time....to heal.....to realize what we've lost.....and to reclaim as much as we can......and lots of rest, patience, and gentleness with our self..... each day now I recognize something I've seemingly lost...or another "mess" in my life that happened while on the poison.....and also each day, I rediscover, reclaim, a part of me that I thought was lost.....so, each day I mourn some things, and joyfully welcome and appreciate the return of others.....

One thing for sure, it ain't boring!

You are right FN. Wise words.

I am a very impatient person - Im feeling panicked that if I step out of life for too long I will run out of time altogether.

I said to a friend yesterday "Im mid-renovations of the mind, still tripping over rubble and dodging loose wires...hopefully it will come together  I'll be able to live here comfortably again." so that's my mantra now when something fractures "just renovating".

 

Not boring that's for sure, but challenging to say the least.
