Anyone on cymbalta? I’m currently on Wellbutrin and they are switching me to cymbalta for my anxiety and my occipital neuralgia. Anyone ever take cymbalta? How did it work for you

Tried it after Zoloft. Worked much better but still did nothing about sleep issues which continue to this day. I'm going to try and switch again, to Mirtazapine taken at night which has sedation as a side effect. My doctor has been marvellous in discussing the pro and con of each meds with me. The trickiest part of managing your health is finding the best one for you and then being patient enough waiting for it to work.

Any side effects that you remember?, I’ve heard of weight gain and sexual dysfunction and lots of nausea

I've been on Mirtazapine for a year at it was a total game changer. I sleep well, and don't have morning anxiety.
