I reallly do think that's all that's wrong with im, but I am just a nurse of 35 years, and not giving out medical advice.
I am so glad that you got to get out, and just enjoy life for the day!!! This does damage to all those that are around. It like the disease of addicton, it afects everyone in the family, ae does what your husband is going through. I hopw your gettting help for yourself too.
We wnd up losingourselves in the other person, as we keep our focus on them, and it becomes our world. He needs to be here doing some of this, and not just you.
I hope that maybe he will let his ego not keep gettting the best of him, as I know how that goes too. It is harder for me to reach out for help.
I am so grateful for the guys we do have here. He could see that he is not alone, or weak
ny what he is going through, and get the support firtst hand.
Kepp up the taking care of Sarah, and don't worry about him, he will be fine. He can call someone if he needs help, don't be afraid to leave him alone, nothing bad will happen. It sounds like due to such bad doctors, and stufff that your really stressing yourself out a bit more thst you need to.
Relax, we are all making it, and I have not heard that anyone has died coming off this crap.
Kepp writng, it is good for you too!
Love,
Debbie

I totally agree with you junior about the fact that they are giving these drugs, and MAO's to little kids. It used to piss me off that the parents would
even bring their kids to those units, vs owningtheir part as parents not doing their jobs!! Then blaming it on the kids. My parents took my to see a
shrink when I was in 2 nd grade, and he told them there was nothing wrong with me. Little did he know what was going on in our home!!!!
Any way I was just wondering how everything was with your husband, and you.
Hope both of you are getting some rest at least, and when do you see the new doctor?
Love,
Debbie

Sounds like he is just miserable from the withdrawls, and anxiety. He was on such a massive dose to start with. I only know from my own experience that after 3 1/2 years, and all the damage it did to me mentaly causing so much depression like symptoms, and sever
anxiety that I have been one who has had a difficult time getting off this stuff too!
I have had to really go down very slow, and I am staying where I am. After what I did try to
do and go down again to soon, well it was by accident, but what a price I paid.
All I know it that I am so grateful my family doctor just give me my RX in whatever dose I tell him I need, and for how long I willl take that for?
If it does not work out with the new doc, maybe try your family doctor, they do order these kinds of meds too!!!
Good Luck with the new doc. Sorry you had to go to the ER, hope your son is ok.
Get some rest sometime today for yourself.
Love,
Debbie

Bad news is she can not help him get off the meds. Next thing he can try is to find a dr who eithor the one he sees for reg dr visits or one around here so we shall see.
The first one who asked how I was taking it all almost cryed in the office.

So tell me I was on Cymbalta for 7 days quit taking it Sunday Night. I have felt wonderfull all week. My girlfriend is so happy I am back to normal. Then Friday arrives. I feel absolutely horrible My head is cloudy and my tongue is numb? Everything is real bright as I sit here at work. I havent had solid sleep all week and my muscles in my body hurt like never before. Its the wierdest feeling. Could this be Cymbalta withdrawal or am I just overeacting?

Then my brother and sister in law came over with their kids. I enjoy having them visit but their kids distroy my house in the process and most times they show up eat and leave never bringing anything to pass so we foot the bill.
Then ontop o everything I was accident prone yestrday...I cut my finger the first time picking corn on a corn stalk then cut the same finger tryinhg to seperte the fence to get the horses back in. Then got a sliver in my other hand and scratched up my legs chasing them. lol and got into the tub to was the dirt off my legs and stubbed my toe. yesterday sucked LOL
We will see how today goes.

I just read about the bad day you had! You poor thing! I havce days like that, it is now what I have found out from being on the Cymbalta, and coming off of it too!
I have so missed being here, and talking to everyone. We have all been brought together because of a horrible thing has been done to us, but we have found eachother to support
oneanother during all of this.
I am in AA, and I know what that means to me to have people who understand what I am going through, as normal people don't. Just like with no one understands us like those who are having to live it, or their loved ones.
I hope your having a better day. Did you know that being clumbsy, well having that kind of day you had is a sign of major stress too!!! Just thought I would throw some of my psycho babble in there. I did counseling for years, so it's hard not to throw the stuff around at times.
Love,
Debbie
