The nurse in my rheumo's office told me she is on cymbalta and tried once to get off. She ended going right back on. She couldn't take the withdrawal from it.
I have decided I do not trust pharm companies. They do not have our best interest in mind. It is all about their bottom line. Like the nurse in my rheumo's office, no antidepressants should be put out there that makes patients become addicted to it.
We'll I better get off my soap box. Thanks for asking cat. It means a lot.

I do hope the Wellbutrin works for you. Hopefully it is not addictive like the cymbalta. That is horrible to have to endure symptoms from a medication that is supposed to help-as if you need any more complications right?!!
And please do vent away. That is a great purpose of this forum especially since it is hard to do do with those around us who do not have these issues. They just do not understand in the same way.
Hang in there. I am rooting for you!
