I've been on anxiety mess since I was 28. I'm now almost 42. I was on Zoloft for years then realized it really numbed me. I do hair for a living so I experience neck and back strain. My girlfriend found Cymbalta for me. As of a month ago I was taking 120 mg. I've been seeing an acupuncturist once a week. She has introduced me to herbs. I feel that my mess that are supposed even out my moods are not working. I was feeling great with the extra help of the herbs. I think we'll if my mess aren't doing their job why am I on then. I began whining myself about a month ago. I went from 120 to 60 mg for 1 month. I didn't tell anyone. Not one person around me noticed any change in me. Hmmm that spoke volume to me. Sept 1st I stopped taking my Cymbalta. I'm only taking herbs. Withdrawals are so crazy. It like I'm experiencing the beginning of a panic attack. My mouth feels funny. Food tastes weird. My body is very heavy. I feel sick. Kind of like I need to throw up but not. Just an empty pit in my stomachs. Is there an easier way for me?
