Hi! I’ve been taking Cymbalta for over a year now, I started at max dosage and have gone down to half dosage currently because of the sexual side effects. I really enjoyed how focused and driven and non-distracted I was mentally at max dose but physically during sex I couldn’t reach climax AT ALL and basically just felt numbed with little to no sensitivity. Now that I have decreased in dosage I am able to climax if I really get into the mood and have 0 distractions. However this is not always possible for me mentally and I feel there is so much pressure, it in itself is distracting. How have you coped, gotten over, gotten through, overcome, or otherwise dealt with this side effect? It is making me want to seek alternative treatment or even just learn to live with my disorders because my quality of life feels so lacking in that part of my relationship and it hurts me that it might also be affecting my partner. Help please! 🖤
