Not something I'm new to but after a year and a half of severe side effects to various types of medications, I was finally able to muster up the courage to collect my prescription for Cymbalta aka Duloxetine that my doctor gave me earlier in the month.
I'm terrified, I would be so grateful for some kind words at this time, I will be starting tonight on 30mg and stopping my previous anti depressant completely. I'm hoping this one will be 'the one' to help combat my chronic depression and anxiety. I've had no success with many different medications and when you are part of the minority(supposedly) and being told by your doctor "but this works so well for other people/no one else experiences these sort of side effects." - it just heightens the feelings of anxiety, I so so want to get better and live.
