I've always thought Cymbalta looked like a good drug to try, but I'm on Zoloft and that's working for me, so no need to make changes.
Anyway, the reason why is because it takes care of two things in the brain, I guess? Got this from the Cymbalta site... [url]http://www.cymbalta.com/depression/about/about.jsp?reqNavId=3[/url]
"Cymbalta is a balanced and selective serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SSNRI)."
The older antidepressants (Anafranil, etc.) were mostly norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors and the newer ones are selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors... So, it just seemed like the combination of those two would be a good thing?
Sorry for all the big words... Hehe. Just wanted to help... :)
I'd try it... :)
