I took Cymbalta for about 5 months. I felt tired on it pretty much the whole time... of course I also took Seroquel and I think they worked together to make me more tired. Mostly it was hard to get up. I didn't really have any problems with concentration or apathy (I don't think), but I wouldn't have called myself perky either. Actually it made me more agitated but tired at the same time-- kind of weird.How long have you been on it?
Maybe try a lower dose? I've read that NE reuptake inhibitors (particularly strattera, but I imagine Cymbalta too) make people tired at too high of doses because they deplete your NE.
