    I want help and support to get off this awful drug.

Posted 29 December 2013 - 03:03 PM

Hi all! Today is a good day. A very good day. I woke up clear headed. I'm still clear headed. I'm feeling like me again. I prayed to God to help me through this and He has done just that. I trusted him with pure faith and I feel so much better today. I know that God can do anything and he has saved me over and over and over. The only good thing that came from being on cymbalta was that I reached the end of my rope and I called out to God. He was there waiting for me. That was almost a year ago after attempting suicide. I know now that cymbalta put me on a crash course for destruction and that only God could save me. And a year later I'm getting off of this awful drug. I trusted my doctor who put me on this. I was going through chemo treatments at the time and I didn't research it. Then 7 years goes by and I can't figure out what happened to me. Thank God I can see now! Thank God he led me to start researching. And now I'm well on the road to recovery and freedom. This is the best way I could ever hope to start the new year. I'm a happy woman today!

Thank you, donna for your post! I am in 100% agreement God can and will work in our lives to restore us. This crap med has affected even my relationship with HIM, and I hate it! But He "gets even that", and is here for me/us all the way!  Hugs and prayers!! clara

@Clara - it affected my relationship with Him too.  At least the withdrawal has.  I couldn't pray and I couldn't read.  I had people praying for me and I finally broke through and was able to pray again myself.  What a wonderful feeling it is to be able to talk to my best friend and my healer again.  And now I'm praying for everyone on this site.  No one should have to suffer like this because of a prescribed drug that is supposed to help you.  It's just plain wrong.
