persephone Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 I swear this drug is turning me into a YOYO. I either feel super manic and like I could take on the world- to the extent of waking up wired at 4am and heading to the gym for it opening at 7 am...ORtired, low, unable to move.To be honest, I'm a bit frightened it might be turning me into a manic depressive!Does anyone else feel REALLY intense on this drug?It helps my pain a lot, but I know that I am just not quite myself, too.

I was only tired the first few weeks then it went away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkoven Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 I haven't taken cymbalta, but have heard that effexor works on a similar principle--on norepinephrine and seritonin. And I'm allergic to it. But maybe you could ask your doc about it?Michele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
