Hey Sregan,
My pdoc was surprised to hear that cymbalta was activating in the hour or so after taking the medicine. However, he did take me seriously and he is a very good listener. He told me to keep taking it in the evening- augment with a tiny bit of seroquel, which is good, since I was getting middle of the night panic and intrusive thoughts that was keeping me up most nights for about a month or two.

I'm not convinced that a pdoc has to have personal experience with a psych med or a mental illness to understand certain symptoms or side effects. I do wish that everyone's pdoc was as creative and as good a listener as mine. When I'm thinking well, he treats me more like a collaborator than a patient, and when I'm not feeling or thinking well, he somehow manages to reassure me that we're going to get everything straightened out ((((pdoc))))
