Brain zaps! (Getting off Cymbalta)
I have been tapering off of Cymbalta for the past few weeks (decided the seizure risk with Cymbalta plus Ultram wasn't worthwhile, so i chose Ultram ER over Cymbalta since it helps more).
I've been doing just great, no major anxiety or depression, pretty stable emotionally. Not as bad as I imagined. A few "brain zaps" here and there (only people who've had them know what I mean! They're impossible to explain).
Until today. Today's my first day not taking Cymbalta at all (I plan to take 20mg every other day for the next week, but today's the first day with no meds).
OMG BRAIN ZAP-O-RAMA!
I am dizzy and feel afraid to leave the house because I'm so... zappy. This sucks.
