Hi Everybody! I started Cymbalta last December 2017 (I stopped Prozac of 20 years 40 mg)Went back on Prozac/20mg November 2018 doing better in mind but my friends are freaking out. I don't drive or go out much anymore. I applied for Disability finally in November. I did not get a lawyer. I take Prozac Trazadone for Depression Cymbalta- Celebrex for the pain I went back on Estradiol 1mg. Anyone on Disability?? How long does it take? Why do some people get it quick and others forever? So much paperwork.

I’m seriously thinking about going off Cymbalta as I don’t like how I feel. I’m on disability but it took me 3.5 years. I finally hired an atty after getting denied. In NC you don’t pay the atty anything until you get approved and then they get a percentage of your back pay. It wasn’t that much. To me well worth it.
It’s so hard in some states to get approved for SSN disability. Even very disabled people sometimes don’t get approved. It’s very difficult. Seems like the SSN administration try to NOT approve. They seem to find loopholes to not approve. Even when we are very disabled. I say don’t give up. Get a lawyer too. They truly do help in Disability cases. It’s a shame when disabled folks like us who truly are disabled don’t get approved. Sometimes it takes 2-3 times to resubmit. Take good care.
