Hey folks,
I just started Cymbalta two weeks ago. At first I felt really wired the whole time. That faded, so I'll chalk that up to an initial adjustment to the med. For the past few days, though, I've been feeling really tired and slow. This might be due to the fact that I didn't sleep very well for a number of nights while I was feeling wired, and so now maybe the lack of sleep is catching up with me.
But the sleepiness seems to come on stronger after each dose of medication. My sense is that this is similar to what a number of people have experienced on SSRIs. So, what I'm wondering is: Is this the somnolence something that's likely to diminish over time? Or are there people who've just been tired all the time even after long-term SSRI use?
Please let me know when you have the chance.
Best,
