Hello again! What a great group! I wasn't able to take the other half at night, because it agitated me, so I tried taking it mid-day, and that worked some better. I've broken my 25 mg. shield tabs into halves, and done 1/2 a.m. and 1/2 afternoon. I have to be careful not to take it very late, though, or I'm real fidgety! Lord, what won't we do to feel better? But, overall, I do better on the Lamictal than off. Talk to the doc about the Cymbalta, it's not right for everyone, for sure. Read up on it online, educate yourself, as well. Take care.. RaeD
