Hi all! I am a 34 year old man, married with 2 kids and teach 4th grade math/science. I have been battling depression for as long as I can remember. Only now I have accepted it and am ready to talk about it. I have a wonderful family, nice things and a great job...don't get this depression. I was just put on Cymbalta 60mg and wondering if anyone has had success on it. Thanks

Timetoshine, Hello and welcome to Psych Central!
 I have been on Cymbalta for six years now. It has been the only antidepressant that has worked for me. Also it helps me deal with my chronic pain issue. |

Hi Timetoshine, and welcome to pc. We are glad you are here. A child will remember a good teacher for life. I am 53 and I still happily remember my favorite teacher. She was my third grade teacher. My mother taught 4th through 6th grades for many years.
Depression is a hard thing to deal with. I have battled it for a long time too. I am hoping Cymbalta works well for you. I have never been on this medication. I have taken Prozac, celexa, wellbutrin with mixed results. I am also on amitriptyline but this was prescribed for migraines.

Timetoshine, I was on Celexa and Wellbutrin together and that was also not effective. I sincerely hope the Cymbalta works!
