Day 4 Taper to 8.1 mg or 0.104g

Well I expected to be worse today and I have had some weird feelings in my head but not severe enough to be zaps or a headache. And this is surprising me because it is day 4! I should be feeling more.

I feel tension somewhat and some muscle stiffness but it seems as if my exercising has help with that and even with the head.

Maybe the exercise ( cross trainer 2 x a day) or the whole foods and juicing and eating more healthy has me thinking I don't feel bad ... I have to tell you I feel very good compared to the doctor's recommended taper. I am bound and determined to get through this and even more, I am determined to excel!

Usually during a taper I have a tad more anger toward the drug companies .. and might have ranted and raved. But I do believe that people who write blogs or make videos about withdrawals in youtube is starting to get through to people and more importantly young people. They can't stop us and we all together will be heard.

If you have ever gone on youtube.com and viewed a video and then read the comments under it, it can be brutal and arguments like you never have seen. One thing I noticed when it came to a Antidepressant video on youtube pro or con the feed back in the comments from the audience is amazing, especially younger people voicing their concern and anger towards antidepressants, They are getting the message and they try to spread the word to others.

I wonder if this is why Cymbalta is targeting older people with pain such as lower back pain and arthritis?

Some people say Cymbalta works for pain, but one thing ... No one knows why and no one can tell you how this drug will effect you later on .. you think you are in pain now?? New types of hell await you my friend. I have seen it personally. Don't believe? You can go to youtube.com and search for the term "Cymbalta" or "Cymbalta withdrawal". because here is a well known fact .. no one can stay on a certain pill forever, it stops working some day down the line and hell awaits you. Doctors say they think the brain becomes immune to the drug and they have to switch you to another. Others say the drug just stops working and you go into withdrawal even if you don't stop the pill, when they switch you, you have new side effects, plus with draw side effects .. then that drug stops, you will be switched again... at any time after the first poop out you want to quit, you are in for a rude awakening.

Think you can just switch pills for the rest of you life? It does not sound pretty. It sounds hellish to me. There are non surgical and non drug related breakthroughs for lower back pain ... a therapy for the disc.

Here is a site about a new way to treat back pain even degenerative disc disease that was featured on our local network news. It actually treated the disc itself not through drugs or surgery.

People need to research for their own health and lives .. we can't trust drug companies and if the Doctors keep listening to the Drug Reps we can't trust our Doctors fully. We have to take care of ourselves and do our own research and get word out to others to do the same. Especially since our medical care is about to circle the drain here in the USA.
