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

I see my doc today for routine check up. I'm giving him a lot of info today. Wondering how he will respond. I'm much better but I still have bad days where I just want to stay in bed and give up my career. But it doesn't last. My weight has gone down by 5 pounds. My body doesn't hurt like it did. I'm still experiencing some dizziness. Some days more than others. But I'm much better and I know I will recover from this drug and the withdrawals.

Excellent! Best wishes on your visit with the doctor. Might be an opportunity there to create an ally.

So happy for you DonnaP ... Your weight loss is inspirational for me as I'm struggling in that area .. I've actually GAINED weight for no apparent reason , my diet is great & Ive never been overweight in my life . The fact that you're experiencing good days is a blessing . I'm cheering you on my friend , from down here in Australia . :-)

    Read so many painful stories on here and offering others support while trying to heal myself from cymbalta and other antidepressents.

Great news Donnaprashad, managing you up and down days. Five lbs loss is releaving I'm sure. Doctor visit today, hopefully turns out well. Keep us posted. Be well and loving support to you.
