I've just started taking Cymbalta.  I was on 30mg one week and have been on 60mg for 4 days.  I don't like what it's doing to me.  Should I have a problem just stopping?  Thanks!

It is hard to say jhans. Even those who have been on cymbalta for years vary a lot in how they react to stopping the drug. I would think that the sooner you stop the better though. There is only one way to find out...wean yourself back off. Back to one week on 30s then stop. Just my thoughts.

    I'm in the throes of withdrawal (even though I did my best to bead count). I'm here for help and support, and would love to offer support and encouragement who are going through the same....

I tried cymbalta back in '05, and I only took it for a week. I had no trouble stopping. I took it for two years (tapered off back in March of this year), and that was a much different story....If you have only been taking it for a week, BAIL NOW!

 

Best of luck to you....
