This is my first visit. Who knew there were so many of us? I've had depression since childhood. If there has been a med, I've probably taken it. Cymbalta is an ugly drug that demonstrates how ugly our federal government and drug companies are. It's all about money. I deserve some of it for the pain and suffering this horrific drug has caused. I've given up trying to get off of it, I can't function without it. I have three kids who need me. It horrifies me that the medical community is in complete denial of this. My doctor told me to take a booster of this crap every other day. So I began feeling rather strange. Fatigue, tremors in my hands and legs similar to restless leg syndrome, nausea....I suddenly realized I was going into withdrawl every other day! For awhile I was thinking I had MS or something. I'm taking 30 mg at this point and I don't know that I will ever be able to stop. I'm just terribly concerned about the long term implications of this drug.

You are taking it every other day? I remember running out and by mid-day thinking I was going to die...............Good luck with it. I am certainly glad I am through with it....
