I have been on various anti-depressants through the years for various reasons. And I’ve always come back to Cymbalta. It helps with my major depressive disorder (along with work with my psychologist) and I believe it truly decreases my chronic pain from fibromyalgia and bad arthritis. Decreasing cymbalta from 60 to 30mg in one month seems too fast and not enough time for your body to adapt to the changes, which may be causing the way you are feeling. This is assuming you were doing well at the higher dose and you are trying to decrease to a maintenance dose. It’s best to do this under the care of a physician who is familiar with cymbalta. It really makes a difference. Trust me. I’ve been there and back. I’m lucky because I have a psychologist who I trust and knows me well and a rheumatologist who works WITH me. I hope you stay the course because depression sucks and it’s a dark place to be.

Well put @leilanis. May I ask why did you switch off if it was working so we'll? Weight gain?
