its an anti depressant i have to take and it gives me thoughts of crazy stuff. when i take it ill think of pokin myself..cuttin myself and things like that (only sometimes though). the other day i stuck myself with 7 straight pins..and i would never do that cause i got really upset when my friend was doin things like that.

It's probably an initial side effect. Try to resist thoughts like that for at least another week (maybe more depending on the perscription details). If these feelings become more apparent, then talk to your doctor and see if you can take something else, or a lower doseage of Cymbalta.

Try to stay around ethically bound people when you take it then. Or talk to you doctor about getting another kind of antidepressant. How long have you been on this medicine anyway?
