"i&#039;ve been taking cymbalta for anxiety and dysthymia for 3 months.  it is the best medication i have tried in 10 years of treatment.  no weight gain, not as lethargic, and my attitude has been much better towards life in general.  right now i am on 60mg a day.  i&#039;m not sure if i can go up from here but even if i don&#039;t, the way i feel now is better than anything else i have tried including prozac, lexapro, welbutrin and several others. i do have some dry mouth and sweating but it is tolerable."
