Just Checking With Others

Updated

I take Cymbalta 60 mg daily. I take it in the am to avoind sleepless nights, but that has not stopped. I may sleep an hour or two at the most every night. The depression is better but I am having second thoughts about continuing this medication. Like i said, I do not sleep at all. I have major night sweats and have terrible headaches. As odd as it may sound, the headaches are focused on the left side of my head. It feels like pressure and it builds. It does not last long but it is continual. I do have dizzy spells as well. I love what this has done for my depression but I am so confused about everything else that is happening since I started taking this drug. I have tried other anti depressants but this one seems to help the most. What to do??

Which other antidepressants have you tried?

Learn more antidepressant details here.

There are others that are available that are in the same class as Cymbalta, so you might have better luck trying one of them.

Have you told your doctor about the issues?

Omg pinhead, are you still on this? I switched to a morning dose as well, hoping d sleep, and I still have insomnia. I had it before, but 2 tylenol p.m. Would do the trick...now It doesn't help at all. And the night time sweating is the grossest thing ever! I'm at about three months. I've been suffering from an undiagnosable chronic pain. The Cymbalta has improved my life, I'm just tired!
