    Give loriron1 a hug



    • Hug

      From cwcatcat August 22

      Hi! I've been on cymbalta for about 6 weeks too. What's this about brain zaps? I'm new to this site so if the answer is somewhere I haven't gotten to , I apologize.
      I think this site is neat. Since most of my relatives don't understand my depression, it's nice to talk to people who do!
      I'm not sure if cymbalta is helping since I'm still tired but can't sleep, ravenous a few days and then not hungry, etc.The only thing I think I notice is I'm not as achey as usual.
      Thanks!

      Cymbalta Working / Worked
      I have been taking Cymbalta for about 6 weeks and it seems to work pretty well. The side effects aren't so bad anymore. Not as bad as on some other anti-depressants, though. I have heard about people having brain zaps and I was curious what those are. I have had times during the day when I don't feel like I am in control and I say things that don't relate to the conversation I am having. These are fairly rare, but still they bother me. Can anyone comment on these "brain zaps"?
