Arrow Lilly's own papers...

show 47% incidence of withdrawal syndrome. This typically comes after several months at least on it.

Cymbalta has another down-side...it can cause liver toxicity. No other antidepressant does.

Effexor is very similar to Cymbalta.

Everyone is different, and I'd say you have a 50/50 chance of issues, based on the published papers.
