I don't know what to do anymore.

I have been on Cymbalta for 6 weeks. I started it after a suicide attempt and in that time I have gone from being suicidal and darlkly, deeply depressed, to coping on a day to day basis. So while my depression has lifted somewhat, my sex drive has all but vanished. My husband is being so patient and suffering along in silence but I can't do this to him anymore.

I have also not started to shed any of the unasked for weight that Effexor and Lamictal gave me.

I have relatively few other side effects compared to the myriad other drugs I have tried.

What to do next? Go off Cymbalta and start over? Fake it?

I adore my husband and am hopelessly attracted to him. I feel frustrated, angry, and sad at losing my sex drive. And afraid. Very afraid.

Thanks for listening
