I take 120mg of Cymbalta per day. It has been a life saver. It was the first antidepressant to work on me, and I'd tried about a half a dozen or more before it over the course of 2 years: some did nothing at all, some made me angry and impulsive.

The first day I took it I had results. My brain felt euphoric. Now it just keeps me happy and calm. I don't wake up dreading the day or trying to sleep it away.

It's truly awesome. I'm also on Lamictal, Geodon, and benztropine. I have diazepam for sleep. It sure didn't work last night. I woke up at 3:45 and have been trying to find stuff to do before I have to go to work. Must be a little hypomanic. Better than depressed though!
