I take 60 mg Cymbalta a day, started on 30 mg about 6 weeks ago, and 3 weeks ago increased to 60 (30 mg in AM and 30 mg im PM). The first week I had an abnormal "high" like taking amphetamines, which I think was the norephenephrine. But that leveled out. The norephenephrine does seem like a mild stimulant, however. I keep a diary, and I haven't been as depressed as I was before. In fact, last week I felt really, really good in a natural way. The way I used to feel as a kid.
So I think it's a good AD, for me, at least. And it doesn't cause weight gain. It does decrease orgasmic response.
Hope that helps.
