Hi Tania, I have been on 120 mgs. of cymbalta/duluxetine for several years now, I believe. . Cymbalta is very similar to effexor . . I still have times of anxiety and depression but my medication really helps me. . You have not been on effexor for very long, really, relatively and typically speaking . . I would say to give it more time if it at all is helping. . 12 weeks is a fairly short time compared to some of us others out here yo, my dear friend! . . My best peace, love, and good vibes to ya, Tania. . 😎 Cool 🐈 Cat. .
Finding the right antidepressant and dosage can take time, and it's common for some people to still experience symptoms even after several weeks of treatment. Many MyDepressionTeam members have shared experiences of needing to try different medications or dosages before finding what works best for them.
