@crbarefoot I am on 20mg of Cymbalta (duloxetine) for anxiety and depression. This is a low dose that I have stayed on for a few years. I don’t take it for neuropathic pain so I cannot comment on that. It works for me for anxiety and depression. If I increased the dosage (at one time I was on 30mg) I get more relief from anxiety symptoms but I decided that I wanted to use my mindfulness practice and coping skills along with this lower dose. So I do get anxiety symptoms that are triggered for a situation or event and I use my skills. I can function and live a good life even when anxiety symptoms do occur because I know now how to manage. The Cymbalta helps to make anxiety and depression manageable. By the way, I haven’t had any side effects even when I started Cymbalta.

Are you taking something else for anxiety, depression and neuropathic pain and you are switching to Cymbalta?
