It has now been about 40 hours since I took a Cymbalta. I swear, I will never take another. I don’t know how I’ll do it. But here goes. Someone wish me luck.

the symptoms so far aaaaaare -
-manic. so very manic. wide eyes and over-blinking and the whoooole shebang.
-desire to scream (related to the mania).
-suicidal thoughts (increased).
-dizziness. like being drunk, but crap.
-headache.
-can’t sleep!
-cold (possibly lack of sleep also)
-anxiety
-muscle pain. severe. flu-like.

So that’s quite the list, considering that Cymbalta has “a long half life”. long shelf life my ass. it has the half life of…of something with a really crap half life. I start to feel withdrawal within 2 hours of missing a dose. and things are just getting worse.

help me. world. help me.
