Hello, Elise! How are you? I'm sorry about the problem you're having.
Somnolence can be a normal side effect of this medication, as reported by the FDA. It can also cause dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth, mood swings and weight changes.
However, since it hasn't gone away in over a year, you may need to try a different medication. It is an SNRI antidepressant and there are several others that you could try, if your doctor approves.
Has anyone else experienced this while taking Cymbalta?
