I have read a lot scary stuff regarding withdrawal symptoms for Cymbalta.So I am also concidering to go for a TCA instead, Nortriptylin (Pamelor) as this should also be well for treating Melancholic symptoms.
Havent read much about withdrawal problems with Nortriptylin, but maybe I am wrong...?Which one is the best choice? I know it is a tough call, but I dont like the idea of becoming addictive to ADs like Cymbalta
