Hi guys
I have been on Duloxetine 60mg for about 3 years now. I was diagnosed with Generalised Anxiety Disorder - and the medication does put the anxiety at bay (the majority of the time) however, I am concerned that the medication gives me an almost careless attitude to life sometimes. I don't have a lot of urgency about me which I have found to be unhealthy especially at work. I am noticing it more and more over the coming months and wondered if this is normal? Does anybody else experience this? I also feel tired all the time, and wonder if this is a side affect too.
Thanks Jasper - I have considered meditation as it's not something I have ever done before and have heard that the results can be great. I will look at the book you suggested. :- )
You are very fortunate you can find peace with mindfulness. I am diagnosed with anxiety and agitation which is there every day. Several a.d.s have not helped, side effects made them worse. I am now aaboout to embark on another moclobemide as others have been exhausted but dr has told me to take 3 x 5 diazepam to counter extra anxiety on taking the med. i am frankly scared of doing this but feel i have no option betweeen anxiety and nausea and just generally now depressed about it all.
