Gosh, I was starting to feel completley alone.
I have been taking Cymbalta for about a year now for chronic headaches. It seemed to work right away. My original prescribing Dr. told me tha this was the best medication with ABSOLUTLY NO S/E. and I thought she was right for the longest time, and I could find virtually nothing on the internet about the new wonder drug.
But every month I struggled to come up with the money to pay for my script, because I had immediate withdrawls if I even missed my dose by an hour. Anyways, this last week I just couldn't get the money..and I was 2 days past my last dose, and was going crazy already. I called my Dr. and told her I just wanted to stop. She prescribed me some xanax because I was hyper-ventalating and having anxiety attacks. That was 8 days ago...and everyday I just seem to get worse. If I move to fast, its almost like I am moving in slow motion and and my heart feels weird, not like a normal heart beat, but an extremley fast TICK>TICK>TICK> sounds weird I know. :)
I cant stop crying, I feel so empty..alone.. and hopeless. I am very angry all the time, mad at everyone, and I cant explain to anyone why I am wigging out on them. I am a very good multi-tasker, and I can barely do one single thing.
If I cant find something I have an anxity attack (which until a week ago I have never had one before) My kidneys feel like they are going to explode, they hurt so bad I cant move sometimes. I feel like I am dying. Everyday is just worse. Is it ever going to get better?????http://www.prozactruth.com/cymbalta.htm
The side effects on this websit..after reading them I realized that over this past year..I have had probably 75% of them....I thought I was just generally unhealthy!
GOOD LUCK TO ALL!!!! Have a sun-shine-happy-day
