    Sorry for my short reply earlier. I was half asleep this afternoon!

    Well, I started taking it Saturday, and I feel a lot better, even though my doctor told me that it would take a while for it to kick in. I do feel pretty jittery though... like I've had too much caffeine or I've been taking diet pills. I definitely haven't had any problem getting myself to work out, because I have so much energy! I haven't been sleeping very well even though I take them first thing in the morning, but I assume that will wear off once I get used to it. I felt kind of nauseous for about an hour on the first day I took it, but it hasn't happened since.

    I'll let you know how it goes once I've been on it a little longer if you want. Are you going on it or thinking about it?

    I have taken Cymbalta. For me it was a wonder drug, except I had some sexual side effects. I completely lost my appetite and had to force myself to eat every other day or so. At one point my potassium(sp?) dropped so low I had to go to the ER, but once I realized what the problem was I started taking a supplement when I started to feel like it was going to low and I was fine. I had more energy(always been a problem for me, I am always tired) and I lost weight. I would definately reccomend it.

    Hi,

    I would suggest checking out this website, its filled with posts about Cymbalta withdrawals. A friend of mine is going through Cymbalta withdrawals right now, and regrets ever taking it.
