Still feeling like crap. Extremely dysphoric, poisoned, more depressed than before starting cymbalta.
Zoloft never did this to me. I just got side effects, felt the same, and in just a few days was already feeling slight hints of getting better. Prozac never did this to me. I started feeling slightly better in 2 days and it lasted years before turning against me.
Paxil was hard to get started with all kinds of side effects, but it did not make my depression worse at the beginning. The only ssri that made my depression worse was lexapro.I know what side effects are. This is not side effects. I agree with the posters here that said this is not normal. In my experience, it is not normal. With any drugs that ever helped me, this did not happen. On the contrary, they showed tolerable side effects and quick hints of goodness that continued to improve slowly with time.
