I added Cymbalta 60mg six weeks ago. It's great for mood and pain but I'm very frustrated with the effects on sleep. If I take it at night, I wake up around 2am, eventually fall asleep, then have a hard time waking up later. If I take it in the morning, I sleep through the night until 5am, sometimes 7am, but during the day I have a constant urge to lie down and nap. I'll get up, then an hour later (or less) I need to lie down.
Does anyone have experience with this? Any augmentation strategies? Maybe trying divided dose? I really want to tolerate this med because it's so good for mood and pain.
By the way I also take a sleep med (triazolam) which worked really well before adding cymbalta.
