I'm not familiar with your situation. Are you taking any other drugs right now? What was your pdoc's logic stopping your cymbalta? Do you think this is the worst of it? Can you muster through a few more days and maybe do a little exercise to get some endorphins going?
I can't be of too much help with that particular drug b/c i have never taken cymbalta, but i have felt excatly how you describe when my doc took me off celexa last year when i was manic. I came crashing down and spent a few weeks in the pits.
I hope you feel better. Keep talking to us today and let us know how you are doing!
