"i have been taking cymbalta for 3 months now to combat depression and anxiety. i am taking 30mg per day. when i first started taking it i was very sleepy. i had to take naps during the day which wasn&#039;t too good. i finally had a breakthrough with it and now no longer need the naps. i had good side effects for a few weeks like no hunger pangs. those went away. i haven&#039;t gained any weight either like i did on zoloft and serazone. i feel great and during my pms now it is so nice to actually be nice to others again. it is a wonderful medicine. keep taking it and you will feel better. the sleepiness will go away and the sun will start shining again. i laugh again like i used to and i have no sexual side effects yeah."
