I've been on Cymbalta for about 8 years. I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis back in March of 2013. I've been taking a drug for MS for about 2-3 months and noticed some hair loss. I attributed it to that since it was the new change. My neurologist thought it was the Cymbalta since I had been on it so long. He prescribed the every other day of Cymbalta (60mg) for a week and then taking Buproprion (basically Welbutrin I find out after, and I did NOT do well on that). So it's been a week and a day and I feel so depressed and nauseous and blah and miserable and short and....yeah, I know. You all get the point. I've been reading here about the bead counting which I may go back to taking it and do. I really cannot function normally and I'm about done crying. The reason for the Cymbalta was to be happy!!!!
Pretty much, I'm just happy that I stumbled upon this site. Pretty sad when there's a whole website for the withdrawal of a supposed "helpful" drug. I will now be an advocate to NOT take this drug. I don't want anyone to ever have to go through this.
