Cymbalta 6omg
Just to let anyone who is wondering about CYMBALTA 60mg I am on my second week of the antidepressant. The first week I was taking 30mg as perscribed by my doctor, who now on the second week has me taking 60mg. My overall feeling is positive. I realize I am new to being on the medication, however, I am personally at a crossroads life wise: recently unemployed, going through a very turbulant marriage that verbals have said the 'divorce' route, and I have since last fall ran from all my problems by traveling to NY, to this year FL. ALOT. Each to start a new life. My life stresses have had me looking for to lean on family who have made it clear that I won't be given money for assistance...'which I never asked for', however I innocently walked in on a private conversation. Anyway, I am on my own in a sense. And I can hear my moms words echoing in my head even now states away. "Your either going to swim or sink by this age in your life". And yes, she is the one telling my father in private, "No we are not going to give her any money". I had walked up from behind her and exclaimes softly, "I never asked you both for any money". Her replie was and his too, "Just you being her is costing us money.
BREAK ----from that. They love me I know. Truly they do. But they are retired Ct teachers now in a brand new home they built in FL and they just bought a boat.
Tough Love I suppose. My psychiatrist said wow, Suzie, that is not love from your parents at all. About six or so months ago he did an evaluation on me. He said well you confuse me Suzie, your bright, smart, and I can't with out more talks know what is wrong. He knew the general stuff...when they do their check list for the evaluation. It is when I disclose real life situations and how I am not functioning to my full capacity he only now six months later is perscribing Cymbalta. I feel Happier.
My psychaitrist knows that I have had turbulance in my marriage over three years now. And he is aware of my family dynamics such as they are. More importantly he knows I should be able to work and for me this is a biggy. I have not worked since I married technically. I have been too uprooted and malajusted with on and off work patterns.
So Cymbalta is my scales of justice to even out my hormones now that I'm turning 39. Reason I mention hormones is because while I was in FL I landed an excellent career that paid a first time high for me base and commission. It was my start of my period (sorry to be so blunt), but I woke one day after loveing work, a Sat. and felt just crappy. Wanted a low profile at my parents and poured my coffee, made my toast and went to catch the news in the living room while my mom was out on the terrace. Perhaps this is the drama...but I knew ahead of time I should say good morning to my mum. But I refrained for some reason. I think back now because she came in late with my dad and scolded my little bishon for jumping up around her as she came in from dancing. She was in the laundry room then kitchen and she has a thing about my little under 10lb bishon standing on two legs trying to get attention. Well I being an adult just took my dog into her room, actually my bedroom /guestroom at the time. OK to the point here, woke up feeling crapy Sat. morning and my mom actually within 10min confronted me while getting first angry and then crying that I did not greet her that particular morning. COME ON . BREAK ANYONE PLEASE!
Love my mom but she actually had the nerve to not only blame me but say other people have problems too not just me. I told her I should not have to be making excuses why or anything...and that excuse me for going through financial hardship plus a divorce and I just do not have extra to go around this morning. I told her my allergies exploded blah blah...and then I found my self packing yet again back to where ever.
So Cymbalta, I am giving myself the chance I need to get back on track with not letting drama interfer anymore. And soon I will have now that I am back in New England a great job and with or without a divorce with be happier. Only then will I wean myself from the meds with my doctors help.
I do feel alot better. Really. I can clean around the house and cut the grass...I actually see it as meditation. I usually dispise cleaning.
