I guess we'll never know for sure the extent to which this young person was depressed before beginning the Cymbalta treatment.
A number of years ago, I stood alone here on Psycho-Babble pleading that people become more aware of the possibility that Prozac causes suicide. Of course, I implicated other drugs as well, but Prozac was the one focused on by the media. There are those that wanted to ascribe the few incidences to be found on Medline to akathisia. I found this to be a weak argument, as it seemed to me that the incidences of suicide were higher than those of akathisia.
Cymbalta caused a depressed young woman to commit suicide. Now what?
