I am definitely stopping the Cymbalta. I realize that I am not giving it enough time to work...but I just can't handle it. I feel like I am dying. My heart is racing, I am jittery, waves of panic attacks are hitting me, and I am sick to my stomach. I am kind of mad at myself for quitting so soon...but this just doesn't feel right.
The only plus that I can see in this right now is that I have no appetite at all when I am on it. I forgot to eat Wednesday. Completely forgot until late at night. That just ain't right : )

About Me
- Tracie
- I recently quit my job with General Motors after working there for 14 years. Going back to school soon so now I get to decide what I want to be when I grow up : ) I have two teenagers who think they know it all. Yet, they can't seem to remember where the laundry goes or how to do dishes. I have been happily unmarried to my guy for over 17 years. He works harder than anyone I know and I appreciate him more every day. Follow me as I blog through my life...Welcome!

You may not be giving it enough time to work, but sometimes the side effects aren't worth dealing with. You know what's right for you and I think you're making the right decision. Have you ever tried lexapro? I've heard really good things about that one. You and your Dr will find something that agrees with you.....hang in there!
