"i&#039;m 22 years old and have had depression for 9 years. i&#039;ve tried celexa, paxil, zoloft, and xanax, but nothing has helped me better than cymbalta. the first time i took it i threw up, and had no appetite for about 4 days. but the second day of taking it, i could tell it was working. i could focus more, i could smile more, i could go out in public and not panic. and t.v shows that i&#039;d seen before and didn&#039;t think was funny, i now watched and laughed at! cymbalta has completely changed my life. i&#039;ve been taking 60mg a day for 2 weeks now and i can&#039;t remember ever being this happy and hopeful. it&#039;s very expensive if you don&#039;t have insurance, but there are organizations out there that will help you out with your prescriptions."
