I have been on 60mg of Cymbalta for 6 weeks now, and definitely experienced an improvement in my depression at about the 4 week mark. I was finally able to concentrate! However, the sleepiness I feel on this med continues. When I get up in the morning I feel pretty good for about 5-6 hours, but after noon I am pretty much shot for the rest of the day. I often take a nap. As a result of this sleepiness, I am not getting much done!
Has anyone experience with sleepiness continuing this long with the medication? Did anything help? I am going to try switching to taking it in the morning. Perhaps it has been messing with my REM sleep by taking it at night?
