I just posted to you on a different thread... 180 mg is a killer dose...suicide risk, risk of rages and hurting others... I can't believe your doc approved this...if so, he's worse than an idiot and a jackass, he's in the malpractice category!
You need to contact the lawfirm that's representing us against Cymbalta...Knox Ricksen...they've posted a notice about this over in the "Cymbalta in the news" forum.... in addition to the Cymbalta withdrawal syndrome case, you may have a good malpractice suit against your doc for the dangerous dosing levels!
As for your behavior while on the poison....you are not alone...many of us here, myself included, did all sorts of bizarre stuff while on it....drinking like a fish is a common behavior on the poison... as soon as I got off crapalta, I quit drinking, don't have any desire to do so now....I spent thousands of dollars doing weird online shopping, I didn't pay my taxes for 6 or 7 years...I cut off all my friends and lived in a little apartment with all my blinds closed...maintained a job, but that's all...
Now, like you, I'm alive again...I'm reconnecting with friends, apologizing where needed, and find that they are deeply sympathetic and understanding to what happened to me under the spell of this drug...I'm working to clean up all the piles of poop from my Cymbalta years...
Bravo to you for doing the same! :-)

My mania/bipolar became much worse and I blew up at my mom all the time and was just plain crazy...YOU ARE NOT ALONE!!
I hope you find a game plan for yourself and that you find the help and support you need here...well, I already know you WILL!!
Good luck,
IBS

Each of us who goes through the hell of getting of this poison has, I feel, a responsibility to talk to everyone we know, and to our docs, about our experiences ... to get the word out any way we can that this is a dangerous, evil drug....manufactured by a dangerous, evil company....

Where can I find articles written about all of this? Evil company etc?
Flossy
Eli Lilly is the corporation that cooks Cymbalta and many other drugs including Prozac. Like any other corporation, it's in business to make money, and profit is the baseline motivation. Is Eli Lilly ethically superior to Coca-Cola, GM, or Goldman-Sachs?
It's perfectly logical to assume that a corporation would do whatever it can to ensure the customer keeps coming back! This is business! The only difference between the large pharmaceutical lab and the entrepreneurial lab in the garage is volume. The executives of these respective enterprises aren't concerned about why the customer returns- just as long as the customer does return.
Cynical perspective? Perhaps.

In my duties over the years I worked for several big corporations. Issues like health, safety, environmental, etc are considered expenses with little or no income in return. Some of the VPs and Presidents would bring a halt to these items (except what was required by the law). Others put great efforts into these items because they believed in business integrity.
