Hi all. My pdoc is switching me from Effexor to Cymbalta due to intolerable side effects (sweating, shivering, etc.) from Effexor. I drink regularly - and don't have any inclination to stop. I also smoke pot - which I find reduces my alcohol consumption.
I am in a huge funk right now due to the med change - and all I want to do is go home and drink/smoke and mope around. I'm not really functioning at work at all (for 3 days now). I know I have to just wait this out. Next Sat. I increase the Cymbalta to 60mg and decrease the Effexor to 150. I just hope I don't stay like this for the next month. I just can't stand being so miserable when I have nothing to be sad about. My life is going good right now - and I'm afraid I'm about to turn it upside down by not being able to function at work. I'm going to go home (again) today. I feel less miserable at home - in the confines of my house with my cats and dogs nearby.
Thanks for listening.
