No, I had to go off of it for some surgery, and I decided not to go back on it again. I take 60 mg Cymbalta now.
It worked fairly well, probably better than anything else I've taken. I took 60 mg. I noticed an almost immediate effect, though at first it was almost too mood-elevating--almost euphoria.The insomnia never went away but it was mostly manageable at 60 mg. After awhile, it seemed that Ambien was pooping out. I had tried Ambien CR before, but I didn't like the hung-over/depressed feeling I had the next day. I also tried Lunesta, but I experienced that bad taste side effect that nothing relieved, so I stopped that.
When I tried 75 mg Nardil and got increased insomnia and agitation, my pdoc recommended Gabatril (I think?), though that didn't help me.
Do you split up your dose?
