I ran out of Cymbalta a couple days ago and am waiting for my refills in the mail. Since then I have been nauseated (also ran out of Aciphex) incredibly dizzy, and can barely move around. Even drinking water makes me sick to my stomach. Luckily my emotions have been in check, all though I have been having very chaotic dreams. Guess it is better to have the crazy in the subconscious than the conscious mind. There is something in your post that intrigued me. I was taking Zoloft for some time and the sexual side effects were too much so I switched over to Cymbalta. The side effects were lessened, but since I have been off the Cymbalta for a few days I have been having the most sexually charged dreams, it is ridiculous. Yet I still have no interest in having sex. Definitely feel like I am going crazy. I feel what you are going through, have you thought about Wellbutrin? Good luck, hopefully my pills will show up soon! Take care.
> It's been two days since I stopped taking Cymbalta. I'm already looking online to see if I'm the only one who feels like I'm going to die. I'm bipolar so it might be just me, but I am exploding in anger towards anyone who even looks at me the wrong way, then ten minutes later I'm crying, tem minutes later I feel I need to vomit, ten minutes later I feel so dizzy that I don't even think I can stand up. I just left my psychiatrist a message to call me tomorrow, because going from 60mgs to 30mgs did not help me come off of it. I went through the same thing when I came off Paxil. That was one of the toughest things I've had to do. I'm starting to fear Cymbalta will be just as bad. I'm coming off Cymbalta because of the side effects that never went away. Including lack of sexual desire, fatigue, and the worst, premature ejaculation. I have this after I urinate. It feels like I'm not finished, but instead of urine coming out...you can figure out the rest. I don't reccommend anyone even try Cymbalta.
