That's the worst drug I've ever taken. I thought I would go insane.
I've heard alot of horror stories about Cymbalta too. Luckily, I can only take 30 mg. a day. I hear the withdrawals from large doses are a nightmare. Actually, that's all I've heard about withdrawals from Neurontin and Lyrica too. The doctors prescribe the drugs and we have to deal with all the consequences. What's wrong with this picture?
