I have been on drug therapy for over 50 years. Initially I was prescribed meds; that if the dosage was too high; I was flying, and dangerous! The list of meds prescribed has been endless, some producing short lived improvements, others caused more frustration due to little effect. From 1968, anti depressive drugs have developed as the understanding of depression has improved: thank goodness. My GP prescribed Duloxetine over two years ago. I started on 20mgs but during the following 6 months, I was I was stepped up to 60 and then 120mgs. My attitude was that after all this time; with serious career and personal ups and downs; let’s go for it. I have now had the happiest period of my adult life bar none. Yes, I am not out windsurfing etc any more but my family life and personal relationships have never been better. David Hudson

*Cymbalta was a godsend* I had a back injury which caused a circumferential disc bulge meaning the disc flattened and bulged out on all sides which caused sciatica pain in both legs. After many drugs to get the back pain under control, Tramadol was the winner. But it didn’t touch my sciatic nerve pain. . . my legs burned so bad by the end of the day I’d cry myself to sleep and wish that I could cut them off because I figured that would hurt less than the feeling of them being on fire all the way down to my feet. I no longer have that daily burning leg pain. If I do a lot of physical work to aggravate my back I will sometimes get a bit of breakthrough sciatic pain but it goes away with rest/heat/Advil. Cymbalta is 💯 worth it for me. It’s taken me from disabled to living a good quality life. Anyone thinking about taking it please don’t be discouraged by this.

Cymbalta was great for my chronic pain, until I became allergic to it, and it gave me eczema and then deep tissue hives and swelling on my hands, for weeks before I finally figured out it was the Cymbalta. The episode I had after I went off the first round of prednisone for the hives was escalated, now my lips and hands swelled and had hives on my face and hands and arms. My doctor told me to start tapering off, but wouldn’t give me another round of steroids and I’m much too afraid my airways will swell, so I’m going off it cold turkey after taking it for 2 years (60mg) ... so I’m on day 3 and the brain zaps, visual disturbances, I feel like when I walk the earth is having an earthquake, flu-like symptoms...and I need to work tomorrow, this is just fabulous

Duloxetine is one of the best in its class. I began taking the drug for depression when the drug came out in 2014, and I have been taking it ever since. I started on the 60mg dosage, but last year, I began having more depression than the drug could deal with. I asked my psychiatrist, and he was glad that I mentioned that to him. There is such a thing as "burnout" with this medicine. I'm not sure if he meant SNRI burnout or duloxetine burnout; regardless, he suggested that I double my 60mg dose so now, after fifteen years taking the drug, I take 120mg in the morning. I have to say that my depression has improved with the new dosage. It is naive to think that there is a pill that will take care of every iota of one's depression, but I swear, I am doing better and that's what counts. Anyway, regards, doctor and community.

Neither Cymbalta or the other three or four antidepressants that I've tried it in the last 15 years have done a damn thing for me. Cannabis is the only thing that works for me. Which I'm grateful for because cannabis isn't going to kill me. And I know there is a withdrawal effects of cannabis because I've gone through it but that's only because I take close to a pound a month and when you go from a pound a month to nothing you're damn right you're going to hit some withdrawals and they're not going to be fun they're going to last for almost a month and a half. Like they did on me. But those withdrawals are a whole lot easier than withdrawals from painkillers or any of the 24 medications that I withdraw from or actually the 24th when I'm on right now. None other can speak to that the way cannabis can

So what drug do you recommend for social anxiety disorder and yes I know all about benzodiazepines… so anything better for this?
@bjsinbc Жыл бұрын
This drug did ease chronic pain however it also left me without emotion or endurance or clarity. I also started experiencing other side effects. Stopping it, even tapering as recommended was the worst experience I ever hope to have. Brain zaps continually, surges of anger out of nowhere, sweats, and worst of all the return of pain amplified and widespread. After 8 months, I still have stiff pain and heaviness in my muscles and limbs. So much worse. It is a horrible medication. I can’t believe it was prescribed to me. Or to anyone.

This was exactly my experience too. They gave me NO warnings about this shit when I was put on it. I was in so much pain at the time I didn’t question it.

My experience going off it is like a horrible hangover with severe anxiety and it's out of nowhere and out of character for me. Extreme exhaustion in my chest, nausea, clenching teeth, ears ringing and headache. It just lingers and sticks around and I'm taking it for fibromyalgia. It makes me feel so sick 🤢 and it causes a horrible low mood like after a big, ugly break up and profound broken heart feeling. It zaps the life out and yet hard to get to sleep. Too exhausted and tense to relax, and when I do finally doze off I wake up from night terrors and weird livid dreams. It's not worth the suffering when there's other treatments available. This medicine should be banned.

It seems after 3 weeks on cymbalta my opioid tolerance was completely ruined and my normal prescribed dose didn’t effect me at all, normally after 20 minutes I am at great relief, after cymbalta it seems the opioid medication has been blocked and made infective. Stopped the cymbalta a few days ago and hoping to get my tolerance back.

I don't care that's why people don't understand that they can heal themselves neurologically from within with neuroplasticity tools these tools are effective on a whole host of pain syndromes they're effective for recovery from narcissistic abuse and other trauma their effective from chronic illness issues such as Lyme disease and all of the associated disorders with that like ALS and Ms Mast Cell Activation hypersensitivities to mold and food and electricity and chemicals. I coach a modality that helps people really recover themselves very quickly and completely non-invasively many of my most recent clients are recovering from the terrible side effects of these drugs which makes it a lot harder it's better to use limbic retraining and brain rewiring methods like I share in lieu of Pharmaceutical hell routes like these incredibly pernicious drugs reach out I do a free consult Heather Lane limbic retraining coach
