> I cannot take any cymbalta because of the headaches. Is there anything I can to to help ease this withdrawal?

You can have your doctor prescribe a few Prozac pills to help serve as a surrogate for Cymbalta. You might only need to take it for a few days. Because its half-life is as long as a week, it will leave your system very slowly and help prevent a withdrawal syndrome from developing.

If you don't want to go that route, try taking over-the-counter Benadryl or Claritin. Both are antihistamines that others report lessen the intensity of the withdrawal symptoms.

Are you taking any other medication?
