I was taking 20mg of cymbalta for nearly 18 months. I decided to get off the medication because I felt it was not working and I could no longer stand the night sweats. I tapered off down to 10mg a day for 1 week and then ~5mg a day for another week. I have been off the drug completely for nearly 4 weeks and I'm still suffering from side effects. My primary concerns now are (1) by breasts ache like I have mastitis and (2) I am so full of rage. Is there someone reading this who has successfully passed the withdrawal stage? How long did it take you? Does anyone know of some good scientific literature I can read that will help me understand what I am experiencing? I need to find myself again before this begins to seriously effect my relationship with my husband and child.
