In reply to Cymbalta and REM sleep - dreaming?, posted by SLS on September 26, 2004, at 16:17:27
Hi,
I've always been a very active dreamer - I was constantly waking up out of some dream several times a night and during daytime naps. I have atypical depression and love to sleep.
With inderal I dreamed even more but the dreams tended to have negative emotions. Now after a week of cymbalta I haven't had any dreams that I can recall.
I'm going to lower the dose from 30mgs to 20mgs per day and hope I can live with the side effects: insomnia, urinary/sexual, and sweating.
I think it helps with the depression and I seem to think more clearly - although my memory isn't as good. It's like I know where I'm going but can't remember the street names. I guess if I can't remember half of what's going on, I can't obsess or worry about it.
