The People....Hope things work out with the Cymbalta.

All....Cymbalta is an SNRI, which means it adjusts norepinephrine as well as serotonin. Effexor is another SNRI. SNRIs are often prescribed for people who try SSRIs first and don't experience sufficient relief from their depression symptoms.

We had taken Prozac for over 10 years when started to make us feel agitated. We tried Effexor for a year, and it was too much med for us. Then we tried Zoloft (another SSRI) for three years. It was was better for us than Effexor but not as good as Prozac.

So we went back to Prozac, but at a lower dose, and this turned out to be the best decision of all. If only we had figured this out four years sooner, we would have saved ourselves a lot of problems. But the important thing is that we're doing better now.
