Hi All,
Im new to this site - I found it in a desperate search for answers regarding Cymbalta withdrawal in my wife
She was on 90 mg for 2 years. After reaching a point in her life that she wanted to stop she decided to go cold turkey, against everybody's advice. She went through the flu like symptoms and just generally feeling terrible for 2-3 weeks and we thought it was over. But we are now 4 months later and her personality has changed, she seems like an entirely different person. She is more self centred, aggressive, argumentative, irritable, and generally not herself.
We were a very good couple together, so I thought. We have always seemed madly in love, people often told us they were jealous of what we had together, how we seemed like soul mates. However 4 months after Cymbalta withdrawal, she is completely confused about her feeling for me. One minute she loves me, the next she does not and my existence is a problem. She developed hyper sexual behaviour wanting to engage in intercourse 10 times a day, not leaving the bed if possible. However we are separated for work and she has now put our marriage on a break so she can't betray anymore with her uncontrollable mistakes, that she regrets but can't explain.
Has anyone had any experience with this, the changes to feelings of love and hyper sexual behaviour? Will this go back to normal in a few months, and let us pick up the pieces, or can I expect a much longer road?
Any help or advice would be much appreciated.
