Hello thanks for asking from HCM for your health related queriesI can understand your concern. Cymbalta is Duloxetine and is a SNRI drug. You are taking the drug since last 10 years but due to current situations the symptoms have relapsed and are causing significant problems. In such case there is need to change the medicines. Other medicines like Venalafaxine, Mirtazapine, Tianeptine etc can help you. These medicines will help to reduce the depressive symptoms and you will find great improvement. Apart from this as the symptoms have aggravated due to divorce problems so cognitive therapy can also help you. Visit a doctor for proper evaluation and treatment. Thanks, Hope this helps you. Take care
