> Hi Paul,
> Thanks for taking the time to share your Cymbalta experiences. It sounds like we've been down some of the same paths: Zoloft, Wellbutrin, Serzone. I've been on the first two for many years with two detours to Serzone in the past 10 years. Unfortunately, Serzone did not do anything for me. Zoloft has been my mainstay but lately seems not to be doing the trick.

So far on the Libido front it is definitely diminished from the already low level I was on during Zoloft. So libido is less.
Interestly, ability is fine.
Many times side effects are heavest when body first adjusts to them. Will know better in two weeks once Zoloft is out of my body and Cymbalta is at 60.
