Miavita,
I think I started Cymbalta 30mg in February I think this year, so am not a long term user.
I came off it cold turkey a few months back and tried other migraine remedies but was unsuccessful.
Headaches returned and I went back on Cymbalta, but this time had to take 60mg for relief.
After discussing with my doctor I agreed to drop to 30mg with a view to withdrawal.
I have gradually reduced dose over 14 days by removing 14 beads daily.
I have been taking Cymbalta for pain rather than depression, so it is a more straightforward situation than depression. Of course I did have very low mood with PCS, so Cymbalta helped this. However as all my symptoms have gone, my mood has also improved.
Hope this helps!
