"i was on cymbalta for 9 months and from an overall mood perspective it was incredible. i did suffer 2 noticeable side effects. i had some insomnia as well as difficulty with an orgasm (i am male). i then went to wellbutrin and that did nothing. a year later i am back on cymbalta and the much better mood is worth it. the withdrawals of stopping were absolutely horrible (nausea, dizziness), but only lasted a couple of weeks as i lowered my dosage.  i will deal with those when i stop the next time."
