Does anyone else here take Cymbalta for depression?? I'm switching from Paxil to Cymbalta with hopes of it giving some pain relief along with treating my ever increasing depression. Can you please share your experiences with Cymbalta??

Scotty,

Yes, I am on Cymbalta after being on Effexor for almost 10 years.

It has made a HUGE difference for me.

I will send you a pm with some info and details just as soon as I can.

Just try and hang on, I think you will see a good change.

Hugs,

Lisa

Hey Scotty,
It's great to see you, I'm on Cymbalta now more than two years and have been happy with it.
Hoping you'll get similar results, hang in there, I think you're way stronger than alot who will luckily never experience AS.

Hello Scotty

Sorry I don't know anything about your new drug, but I wanted to say I am glad you are feeling more positive. I really hope this drug makes you feel better.

Good luck.

Hi Scotty,
I am so glad to hear this news today. Cymbalta is almost identical to Effexor and I use it for neuropathic pain. I honestle felt the burning pain I had in my skin just melt away after about three weeks on Effexor. It also masks the P>F in my feet. I wish you all the best.

Big Hugs,
Janet

Thanks everyone for your support and experiences with Cymbalta. I'm hoping for a new lease on life.
