Hello, Is anyone taking Duloxetine for depression? How are you finding it and did you have any side effects when you started them. Thanks

Thank you so much all of you for your replies. I have told my GP that I would prefer the duloxetine to the Venlafaxine, and the next step is to wean off the citalopram. I’m struggling to go for it as I am struggling so much at the moment anyway, but still have commitments I need to fulfil and I’m nervous about the effects stopping me from doing anything.

If you have chronic pain too, despite my negative experience with it, then I think it is worth trying.
