I would say that, in general, a medication with a substantial effect on norepineprine would be better for cogntition than a serotonin selective medication.
I don't know if cymbalta is necessarily any better. The ratio of serotonin to norepinehprine that works for a person is highly individual.
The TCA's for instance affect serotonin and norepinephrine in widely varing ratios. Some people respond well to one, but not the other.
Some people find cymbalta a bit more activating than effexor.
So, in the end, I don't know which one will be best for you.
