Yes this was one of the worst drugs I’ve taken and I’ve had quite a few. I was desperate for relief from my pain and would try anything. The very nice psychiatrist that prescribed it said it took a few weeks to be effective.

cimbalta almost destroyed my daughter. / The doctors thought she had become a borderline . It was all cimbalta. It made her seem "crazy" irradic, unable to cope emotionally. I sent her to Gundersen, a mental health program a for woman. Once that got her off the drug (months) she went. right back to normal. I know she is not the only one. I thinks it is a very difficult drug on your emotional health. I would stay away from that drug.
