Sick of being sick
I am having another bad day. Last night I made a list of garage sales that I was going to go to today.I did my stomach hurt so much last night I couldn't sleep.and right now I feel terrible, my stomach hurts my head hurts.
It'sa beautiful day and I'm in my bed again. I am really tired watching life just fade away. I want to go outside and live, love and laugh. But my body won't cooperate. I'm am so so tired of this. I feel my life just slipping away day by day. I'm so sad all the time.
Now I find out that it may well be the Cymbalta that could be causing a lot of my problems. so now I really don't know what to do. Do I take the pills do I not take the pills. Do I find another doctor? I have so many health problems that there's just a note telling what is causing what. And the doctors have me on a lot of medications. I am really sick of taking pills and still feeling like crap. The antidepressant obviously isn't working. That I am terrified stop taking it. I've gone through Cymbalta withdrawal before. The withdrawals are horrible
I guess it's another day of being stuck in the house. I wish I could feel good and be happy like other people. Why do I have to be so screwed up? I see life passing me by...

Sorry to hear you are having a bad day. I feel crappy too. I want to go to an auction this afternoon and I doubt that I will make it. Hubby has shut off directv so I am trying to watch movies.
It\'s frustrating when the weather is so beautiful outside and we can\'t enjoy it.
Sorry to hear about your med problems. I wish that I had a computer chip in me that I could get read outs that would say what I should be taking, not taking etc. No one else seems to know how to make me better.
Can you get outside for a walk around the block? I dragged myself outside today to take the dog for a little walk and was glad that I did.
Hope you feel better soon.
Sorry I forgot to come back to my last message to you. Is it possible to hire someone to come and clean your dad\'s mess? Or an organization that looks after elderly people who hoard? I can understand the stress and anxiety trying to sort thru so much stuff.
Sending gentle hugs and prayers
I\'m going through the same thing. The weather has been so beautiful this summer and I only managed to go on 3 walks.
Cymbalta actually made me worse - more tired, weak, and it even lessened my desire to do things I loved. I didn\'t realize it was doing this to me until I got off of it and onto Zoloft. The withdrawal from Cymbalta was awful though. I felt crazier than I\'d ever felt in my life.
I\'m not saying the same will happen to you or that it\'s the Cymbalta causing your problems. I\'m just telling you what happened to me.
I just bought a new computer so after I pick it up I\'m hoping I can keep in touch with everyone on Daily Strength regularly, so feel free to message me any time.
Be good to yourself.
I am taking Cymbalta also. I have taken it for years.. I have been reading some Cymbalta pages. Cymbalta is actually being sued because the drug is so dangerous. The withdrawels are horrible. I\'ve begun to think it is the Cymbalta. There is a FB page called \"Cymbalta Hurts Worse\". I\'m afraid to go off of it though because I have been through the withdrawels before and they are completely dibilitating. I can\'t be down like that. So I\'m, in a catch 22. My family would\'nt support me through it. I\'m actually afraid that my father would have me committed. He has already said that I belong in a home. No I don\'t, he does!
Well, no matter what anyone says you and I are going to get through this!!!!
I hope you feel better sweetie. Thank you for caring.
