Duloxetine (Cymbalta)
Has anyone been on this medication before? My doctor wants to put me on this but I’ve never heard of it

For every one it’s different side effects! In particular for me it didn’t work but I only took it for 3 days so let’s not say it didn’t because I didn’t take it for long I just couldn’t take side effects being a mom of 3

I've been taking it for six years. Maybe longer and its still working. I've had no side effects. Usually I get all of them, even the rare ones. It also begins to work in two weeks as apposed to eight weeks. I've had several friends ask their Docs to switch them to Cymbal ta and they've all had a very positive experience. Good luck.

Medication
Hey friends, I hope you all are well. I just wanted to check in and ask people's experiences about being on medication. I have had OCD pretty much my whole life, just got recently diagnosed 4 months ago and my therapist recommended that I get on meds for it so I have a psychiatrist appointment set up. I'm a little apprehensive about getting on them, but I've realized that I do have some sort of chemical imbalance in my brain that plays a part in my OCD and anxiety. I would love to hear anyones experiences or words of encouragement. Thank you, I hope you all are well.

New diagnosis
I just got diagnosed with ocd and she suggested I think about taking lexapro for it. Has anybody tried that and does it help at all?

Medication or treatment?
I understand that everyone is different but lately I have been debating on medication just because of past experiences but does anyone have any good experiences with medication that has helped them with their OCD as well as therapy or treatment? As of now I’m dealing with it by myself but it feels like it may be getting worse
