I don't know Cymbalta. I use another antidepressant. Since things have changed, you are in recovery. May be you cannot expect the meds to do all the work for you. Very often recovery is a mix of meds and more. May be you have to add other "ingredients" now that Cymbalta has started to work; ingredients like physical exercise (swim , walk, run, work in the garden or whatever) and perhaps relaxation exercises. It might help to take up an old hobby as well or go to a coffee house with a friend ...

Sorry to hear about your therapist's retiring! It takes time to adjust to a new one. I'm not saying that to hurt you, but in the hope that when you perhaps feel it takes some time to get to know the new one, you shall know that that is normal.

Send good thoughts your way ....
