I have just been diagnosed with major depression. My psychiatrist put me on cymbalta which is suppose to help with depression and chronic pain...which I have in my low back and hips. I just went through horrible withdrawal from paxil...put on by my general doctor. I just stopped taking it one day because I was just sick of all the drinking and the paxil didn't seem to work. I have taken the cymbalta now for 4 days and each day my headaches seem to get worse.
Is any body else on this medication? If so what are your side effects?

I take 20mg of Cymbalta. I've been on it for about 3 months. I love it. I was on Lexapro I think before the Cymbalta but it had quit working. The only side effects I have from the Cymbalta is extreme thirst. I am drinking something all the time. But then again I've found most AD's do that to me.
