> I have just started on Cymbalta tonight at 9:00PM EST. By 10:30 I started to feel manic and needed to do to get up from the computer and I cleaned my kitchen and did dishes, that seemed to take care of it. 11:30PM my heart started racing and I found it hard to catch my breath. I went outside to go for a walk as it is a cool night and that usually calms me. I walked about 2 blocks and it felt as though someone was sitting on my chest! I returned home and it went away. My doctor told me to take this at night since it would cause drowsiness, well it has had the opposite effect on me.
What dosage did you start out at? Maybe it was too high to start with?
