I stopped using oxy 6 weeks ago today. I guess that would be 42 days. I want to be completely free of prescription drugs so I have weaned off Cymbalta and have been completely off for almost three days now. I feel I no longer need it because I can run and exercise now and I have been able to stay off antidepressants for years as long as I could run. This whole drug dependence stemmed from an injury which stopped me from working out for almost a year and a half but is now better enough for me to start getting back to my life. The terrible thing about getting off Cymbalta is the withdrawals. I weaned off slowly but I am still having to deal with withdrawal symptoms. This withdrawal isn't anywhere near as bad as oxy withdrawal so far but it is still no fun. I have electricity shooting through my brain, it's really weird and comes in waves, body aches, dizziness, wicked mood swings, canker sores, upset stomach,insomnia and a general feeling of weirdness. Even though I can function, at times I am miserable. It seems drs neglect to tell you the freaking hell you will go through getting off these things. I expected it from oxy but this has caught me off guard. Has anyone else gone through this? I have read the percentage of people who experience these symptoms and it seems I am just lucky to have so many of them...
