Cymbalta

User Ratings:

I really like Cymbalta. I feel like it helps balance me, so that I don't respond based on my emotions I feel at that time, but rather I respond based on careful and clear thoughts. I still feel the emotions, but can control them so that they don't over-rule my rationality.

I am now trying this, have not taken the pills now for a couple of days, (because I love to sleep and it was keeping me up all day, and then I would go to bed around 10:30 p.m. ) so I am back to being cold. I even slept in the day for 3 blissful hours. Does anyone out there knows if this is a problem going on or off the meds like that? Let me know!

Today I am expeiencing the worst constipation & pain of my life... 31 years! I tried taking laxatives and stool softenenrt and they are just now beginning to mildly take effect but I believe I was close to going to the hospital. I could barely walk and sit in the car to drive! I also have a fever and would caution users to be... View full comment

Celexa

6.6	Holistic Benefits

Since I have been taking Celexa for 13 years, I have noticed that when I do not take it, it creates a whole new being that is NOT nice to deal with in me!!! I mean I notice almost immediately that I have gruffer reactions, am short with people and have no patience and no tolerance. I get very angry, which is not something I normally have issues with. Sldo, og recent, I have noticed that I have become crowd phobic when I do not take my Celexa. I have urges to get away from crowds.

Erycette

6.1	Holistic Benefits

The first few nights that I applied Erycette, also known as Ery 2% Pads, my skin started feeling smoother and less oily. When I woke up in the morning, my skin was scaling and this is considered "normal." But one night I woke up in the middle of the night with my face bright red, and a slight rash. I have very sensitive skin and I guess my skin couldn’t handle the irritation anymore. I got up and cleaned my face with my usual soft soap and I felt better. When I woke up I had more sc...
