It's Tuesday.
The weekend went by in somewhat of a fog, with that mild stoned-feeling that I am accustomed to with the SNRI. Stayed home from work yesterday, because I did not feel clear headed enough to focus on a high-multitasking job.
Today, however, the nausea is kicking in. Nothing I can't handle - just a general queasiness that I'm hoping some food will take care of. A little dizzy too, but not nearly as bad as I've heard from others just starting Cymbalta.
On the plus side, there seem to be some definite benifits to the switch. The anorgasmia seems to be gone, and my libido seems to be picking back up as well. Plus, the general aches and pains I've always suffered with seem to be abating, especially late at night. No real withdrawl effects from the Effexor, it seems.
This might actually be the better medication for me. personally. Reserving judgement for another week, I think, to see if the side effects fade like the Effexor's did.
