Cymbalta is an SNRI. It only works by keeping a steady amount in your system. You cant just go a week in between and take one, all you'll get is a headache. The whole point is that the medication is regulating what your brain cant do on it's own. You're ****ing with your brain chemicals dude. And all the ups and downs and serotonin withdrawals only make you more depressed.
Uh oh...

My place doesn't give a ****. The told me I need to talk to a psychiatrist to get a refill.

Lucem, you're right, it's silly to talk about what I would or wouldn't do IRL. Glad you brought it up. Maybe you should write an instrumental about it. I recommend a piano paired with a clarinet. With ambient sounds of you hanging from your shower curtain you ****ing failure.

Art Is Dead. Buy My ****.
