At the same time, I have had normal days, when I feel happy, calm and feel things are flowing.

I have ordered the supplements and the book from theroadback.org and seriously suggest that all of you do too. It's expensive, but when you compare it to your sanity, is it really expensive? And it seems like a natural, safe way to kick this horrid drug. My sister is pretty much an expert in natural remedies, and she stated she felt that the natural remedies used in theroadback.org were definitely the way to go. Oh and something that I have found that really works for the vertigo, "brain zaps", dizziness and nausea? Original formula Dramamine. NOT THE NON DROWSY kind of this med. I take one at night before bed and it helps me so much. I am taking this until the supplements come which hopefully will be tomorrow.
God bless us all (I sound like Tiny Tim!) and I hope that you all find your way............

Hey Family MemberDear MedProf67:
You say that you weaned over 8 weeks. Does that mean you are off the med??? How long did the symptoms last for you???
Yes I am off the drug and only through prayer and www.theroadback.org and their natural products for weaning have I had the blessing of getting back to who I was before Cymbalta. I am convinced that this is a poison. I had no idea what it was doing to me before I got off of it. The symptoms are STILL THERE 10 WEEKS LATER, but ever since getting the natural supplements that are recommended through theroadback.org they have been severely lessened. Look folks, I did not sleep well for the whole year and a half that I was on this med. I took the Body Calm from TRB Health that theroadback.org suggested? I slept like a baby and have not had the brain zaps, the nausea, am able to eat again, BUT am able to control my appetite ( I gained 30 pounds on that stupid cymbalta and could not get it off no matter what I did in exercise!). I take the supplements during the day of the JNK, the unique E, and the Omega 3 fish oil. At night I take the Body Calm Supreme 20 mins before bed and sleep like a rock.
I AM NOT A DOCTOR. I am a pretty highly trained medical professional, and was severely resistant to trying natural remedy. Lord have mercy on me, I am sooo glad I got my ego in check, got humble and did! I can not say that this will work for everybody and may not work for even one other person other than me. But I will tell you this, it did work for me, I would be divorced now if it did not, and am so glad that I am beginning to be the person that I was before this med a year and a half ago.
So yes, the symptoms are still there; only one to two times a day now, and are going away completely thanks to theroadback.org. God bless YOU in your fight against this poison cymbalta.

Hey Med Prof:
I am glad that your symptoms have been lessened by the supplements you are taking, that you are sleeping better, and not have the brain zaps and nausea.
Why did you take cymb. in the first place: Depression or Fibromyalgia????
What alternative treatments/options do you plan to take for your Depression or Fibromyalgia once you overcome withdrawal symptoms???

When I reduced to 2mg. Things got specially difficult and I am getting new symptoms.
I have flu symptoms that won´t go away (I thought I had the real flu, but it has been 10 days, and I do not get better). I have a disconnected feeling in my brain. My arms were shaking today, ankle pains, hard to keep balance when standing up, wounds that won´t heal, crying fits. High blood pressure.
But the symptom I hate the most is the extreme sleepiness and weakness that I am experiencing. All I want is to sleep all day,
I haven´t been able to exercise in 10 days. I hope I have the energy to go back to exercising that helps me so much.
