Racer, I know that life recently has not been a cakewalk, so I hope you get some relief from the traitorous chemicals in your brain with cymbalta. I am routing for you woman!!!
And Scott, you are always so kind and unselfish in your responses. You really made a difference for me about 6 weeks ago. I wish you great success.

I feel that a short positive response to an antidepressant within the first 3 days is a good prognosticator of a long-term response to emerge weeks later.
