Update.

Ok, so as you all know I was going pretty much cold turkey off Cymbalta and I was going through HELL and really sick.
I went to my doctor, and he asked if I wanted to continue with no medication and see how it goes, I agreed.
I'm starting to feel alot better.
It's been alittle over 2 weeks and almost all the withdrawal symptoms have went away.. now I just have the mood swings every now and then and my head is hurting alot but thats about it.
I just want to let you all know, I feel really good being off the meds.
After 2 weeks of being off cymbalta, I don't feel the nagging depersonalization hardly at all anymore, my joints aren't constantly aching, though they flar up a tiny bit sometimes.. it's not bad at all.
And I think it's gonna continue to get better, only can hope and PRAY to God

The only thing I'm goin through now is me and my hubby are going trough a rough spot and i'm fearing a break up, I hope not though.. I'm sure we can get through it with work on both hands... We've been together 2 years and love eachother alot, We've both just been so stressed with several things.

Also, here's a big one.. I am a week late, if you know what I mean.
I took a test when I was 3 days but it came out negative so I'm waiting to take another one.
I'm praying that if I am pregnant I can carry our baby to full term.. I have had miscarriages in the past and I'm worried, but of course I know I shouldnt worry until I know if I am or not.. but you know how us with anxiety are..

Well ANYWAYS
just wanted to update
and let yall know i appreciate your prayers.
You guys are nothing short of amazing people.
Take Care, and reply if you'd like

So, I'm 3 weeks late now but had a preg blood test and it came out neg.
I'm taking a pill that should help me get my monthly visitor.

I'm really agitated and worrisome lately.
Hope these feelings go away.

Heatherbug...Probably due to your hormones playing havoc on your nervous system...You need to be extra kind and compassionate to yourself during this time...God Bless..
