Cymbalta (duloxetine): I have been experiencing chronic fatigue (inability to muster up energy for anything) for as long as I can recall. My doctor gave me a trial for Cymbalta for approximately two months and I noticed an improvement. My mom had a stroke and I was away for a few weeks and unfortunately I ran out of my medication, so I thought I would be okay without it. I was wrong! I experienced major withdrawals after about two weeks. I was easily agitated. I did not leave my apartment. I could not sleep. Some nights I was up until 4:00AM. Earlier in the week I went back on it and things seem to be slowly getting back on track.

Cymbalta (duloxetine): I stayed nauseated the whole time I took it. Plus I lost all sense of judgement and reason. I started buying stuff on Ebay with a charge card. I had charged about $21,000. of stuff without concern. Thank goodness my husband figured it out and stopped me before I maxed it out at $25,000. As he was calling canceling it, I was right in the middle of another purchase. I am back on Prozac and back to normal. I have an aunt that told me that it made her lose all inhibitions about spending also. So user beware!

Cymbalta (duloxetine): This medication made me nauseous for 12 hours a day about 30 minutes after I took it. My doctor changed me to Wellbutrin, but I am weary to try it.

Cymbalta (duloxetine): I have only taken one 30 mg pill and the nausea is horrible. I'm not sure about continuing with it.
