I just began 30 mgs a day of Cymbalta and
for some reason my DR lowered (I think by
accident) my xanax from 2 mgs to .5 which
is a HUGE jump. I take it only at night
before sleep. It seems to ward off night
terrors.
Anyways, I took my first dose yesterday
and literally 30minutes I felt a
difference. I felt a bit disconnected then
after I forced myself to get motivated I
had bursts of energy and almost a surreal
feeling of happiness and content.
I slept well thanks to my xanax ( I still
have 8 days left of 2 mgs) I woke up and
took it today and felt just .... weird.
Not bad just content and not anxious.
I have some energy that I didn't have
before and I feel more rational. Now I
know this isn't common to feel any effect
this soon on a GAD med but I swear to god
I do.
i've tried SSRI"s n the past and they did
not help what so ever. Thankfully there is
now SNRI's and I hope this is what I've
been needing. I have PTSD and GAD.
Anyone have any positive experiences with
this med?
