Current regimen
10mg selegiline + DLPA
1 mg klonopinI am no longer taking Cymbalta or any S(S|N)RI at the moment. Of those serotonergic drugs that I've been prescribed Cymbalta is the best ... if you're depressed. Taking Cymbalta, my depression is gone and my concentration most definitely improved. However, there are two issues. One, my diagnosis is not depression per se, it is social anxiety, like others on this board, Michael Bell, Ritch, and btnd come to mind. With that being the case, Cymbalta removes depression it would seem by wiping out emotion. You win, you lose, doesn't matter. You succeed, you fail, doesn't mater. You see a pretty girl, doesn't matter quite as much as you're used to. So, with the success of nemesis and ASV, I've decided to try segiline with DLPA.
Again, I'm not ripping Cymbalta per se, it just does not seem to fit my dx, beyond the concentration aspect.
