Thought I was out, but not for long.
 
Well, here I am again. Another panic attack has left me feeling hopeless. I cried to my friend on the phone wishing this would be all over. He keeps reassuring me to not give up hope and keep pushing, but when having a panic attack, everything looks so dark and gloomy down the road. Whats funny is I was fine until I got on the antidepressant. I feel increased anxiety and nausea. I am so tired and exhausted from crying.

Yesterday, I thought I made a breakthrough. My brain was all like, "OMG Yes this is it! You are getting closer! Keep going!". Through all of last week, I was getting better and better. Thought I was almost out. Well, as things go, I wasn't. The anxiety and nausea hit me in the morning, almost like a freight train only to turn into a panic attack later.

I gave so much faith in the Cymbalta, it's kinda disappointing to be letdown so easily on day 4. I'm tired, have a headache now from crying and need an ear so I desperately pull myself from the dark deep pit of despair. I am taking ginger for the nausea but still my fears and anxiety are getting the best of me, once again.

I tried cymbalta and I did not do well on it. Gave me increased anxiety, made my tremors worse zoned me out. I came back off it after a few days as I really did not tolerate it well. If i were you I would talk to your Dr about stopping it.

I tried Cymbalta and not nice to me...I am on Pristiq 50mg 1 in the morning now and valium 10mg 2@ night....Do not get discouraged it can take a few trial and errors to find the correct one for you and you'r brain....And try to stop thinking about getting better because it naturally causes anxiety,panic, and stress. Hope you find the correct fit soon:grouphug:

I'm feeling your emotions. I want out of this endless maze also. I wish I had answers for me and others. Thinking of you.
