Benefits
At first, I though this is fantastic. I was almost instantly less depressed and more outgoing. I’ve also lost weight. I’m still nowhere near as depressed and lonely as I was before, but the more I take it the more nervous I’ve started to become.
Side Effects
I’ve been feeling anxious almost constantly since I’ve started with Cymbalta medication. I’ve also felt a very strange “high” feeling that is hard to describe, almost like feeling giddy but not caring. Most unusual. And then there is there is the blurred vision and loss of appetite. I’m really unsure whether to continue with this treatment.
