This could just be a PTAD phase I went through one bad one, last week when I needed the rest most. One of the things you need to work on is relaxing techniques. I posted some in a thread about muscle clench and relax that helps shut down the stress of your muscles. It include breathing. I sometime have to do this to give my body signals to rest. You can get stuck in a strung mode from tension. Think of it as pulling a string on a hunting bow, but not releasing. Those will help you release the tension.

All I know is that when I test-drove Cymbalta this did not happen to me. I suspect this could be a side-effect of the drug, and it will go away in a short time.

My pdoc wants me to try taking it in the morning. She thinks the med is keeping me from sleeping good at night. I'm going to try taking it tomorrow am... Hope it doesn't mess with my teaching. On the side I'm miserable with my anxiety way up!

I think it's the medication. The sister product of Cymbalta, Lexapro, landed me in the hospital. I have only one antidepressant I can take. The rest, too many side effects. If you don't feel better soon, ask your doc to change your med. Some antidepressants also cause anxiety. Some cause depression. Be careful. Hope you feel better soon.

You were taking it in the afternoon or evening?
Never, not with this class of AD.
Things will improve once you begin taking it at the proper time, don't worry.
