Hi, just wanted to add my 2 cents...Recently switched to a new doctor b/c my previous one wouldn't agree to let me try Cymbalta. Turned out the new doc didn't want to prescribe it for me either, but she did suggest adding a mood stabilzer (specifically Lamictal)...she explained it by saying a mood stabilizer will often "boost" an AD, giving extra energy, etc. Have you ever tried adding a mood stabilizer? I haven't tried it myself (yet) but maybe someone on here has some experience to share.
Also, last year I took time off work for reasons similar to yours, and I felt paralyzed...I couldn't seem to do anything, least of all something productive like you are doing by posting on and reading the boards and trying to help yourself. :)
