For me, the Cymbalta / Dex combo was about 95% as effective for social anxiety. It seems the 2 meds potentiate each other, responding to a much lesser dose of both meds. The Cymbalta gave me a remarkable relief from depression immediately. Then after about a year on it an even more astonishingly robust response. Better than any other non MAOI med. Only trade-off is that sex is nearly impossible while on Cymbalta unless Viagra is used.
I can relate to the "Nardil gut" I gained about 50lbs on Nardil!!
