I am in Australia and joined this forum by "accident" before I went on full dose (60 mg) cymbalta after trying other drugs - like CELAPRAM. This was just in time to scare me off :-)
I found here also some " I have heard that.....) - please state facts you know. Cymbalta is not banned in Australia - in fact a Doctor of a mental health clinic did not know it at all !!!!
Not everything the doctors tell us is gospel - everybody has his own brain wired in a different way - do some research as I did - and apply it to you.
After 2 month on cymbalta 30 mg a day I was calm and collected - had no sex drive - premature ejacualation without erection - unable to have sex. I was told to go on 60 mg a day - I refused and took 30 mg every other day for one week. No change - no withdrawal symptoms.
Then same every 2 1/2 days for 1 week - no symptoms.
Since yesterday I am taking 1/2 capsule in a glass of water - no sypmtoms at all - feel good.
I think I do not need any drugs at all - but for those of you who have a problem - try to reduce slowly and find the dose that suits you - it may be as little a 10 mg ever other day. Read here at the forum: Halfime for 60 mg is 24 hours - that means after 24 hours there is still half of what you have taken in your system - take that into account if you want to reduce.
And to finish this - even this small dose I am taking now has not restored my sexdrive or desire -this must be powerfull stuff !
Drink water water water to flush it out
And friday sit in front of something you like and have glass of RED! with some music you like and tell yoursself there is nothing wrong with you :-)
I am off cymbalta - almost - no problems

26.May - no more cymbalata for 3 days - all normal - even sexdrive normal - no ejaculation problems - not miserable !
I will have a bottle of red today!
Slowly slowly off is the secret! Please read up about the "healing" properties of Cayenne pepper - Google it. It opens the small blood vessels - also in the brain - increased blood flow means quicker detox ( I want to believe this!) :-)
