Has anyone got any feedback they can give me on Cymbalta (duloxetine). I've been on it for 6 weeks now for depression & anxiety and it just makes me feel tired and apathetic constantly.

Discuss it with your doctor, not us.

I've been very successful with Cymbalta and remain on it. But you know what? Every one of us is different, so this says exactly nothing about how well it will work for you.

There are only 3 possible doses for Cymbalta, 30mg, 60mg and 90mg. Nearly everyone is prescribed 60mg. It never did anything positive or negative for me. Your mileage may vary.
