Sue, I was on cymbalta for probably a year total when you figure in how long I took to taper off, and it never really worked for my anxiety because while on it my anxiety progressed to panic attacks. I did not think cymbalta was really being used for anxiety but more for depression and the physical pain along with that, but I might be right.
Then again it took my current pdoc to tell me what I really was having was panic attacks and extreme anxiety and xanax to get it under control to help me know what the anxiety felt like. I was so used to be anxious I thought that was normal. You know what I mean.
Anyway, I know who you feel.
Take care,
rsk
