"i&#039;ve taken cymbalta for almost a year and it was great for depression.  after finally getting to a place in my life that i did not believe i needed the anti-depressants anymore, i decided to go cold turkey.  this day marks the 7th day of not taking anything and i must say the detox is horrible.  talk to your docotr before going off this medication, as it has some terrible effects when coming off of it suddenly.
