Just started cymbalta. Scared:(

Side effects

I have a panic disorder I’ve been battling for two and a half years. I’ve been diagnosed with SSRI intolerance after MANY trial & error. Genetic tests line up with my experience with each med.

Psychiatric put me on cymbalta and I feel like I’m dying. It feels like the world’s worst disassociation, I’m twitching and shaking and agitated I’m scared and want to know if anyone else has experienced this. My shaking and twitching is very subtle it’s not violent. But it’s enough to be uncomfortable and anxious as I’ve never had this happen with another medication. I’m on day two or three

Sorry about grammar and spelling I’m mid panic ☹️

Sincerely

An anxious girl
