> Since you have been on Cymbalta for 7 weeks, have you found that it helps with obsessive thoughts at all?In the past, I never really exhibited too much severe OCD or obessessional thoughts. But I did ruminate quite a bit. For me, the SNRIs did a lot better job at decreasing introspection than did the SSRIs. So yes, Cymbalta does really help with staying "outwardly focused." But my symptom of rumination and your symptom of obssessional thoughts are probably not one in the same. So it might be good to get some other opinions from other posters who suffer from your type of issue.
