I've been on Lexapro before, and I found it to be pretty effective for quelling anxiety and depression. How does Cymbalta compare with the norepinephrine that it inhibits? Like, is the norepinephrine worse for anxiety or is it good to have for depression?

I think Lexapro was a pretty good med for me.
My dx has changed since then to BP 1.
With my other meds, I was on Cymbalta..90mg. which made me wonder why I even had a d*ck. I attempted suicide on it 6/9/09 while on it.I'm sure others have had better experiences on it. It's a heavy hitter.

Not sure what the wow is about, can't read minds you know, but I'm not one to mince words in my current situation.
