Feeling good. Been having bouts of muscle aches.
Today I'm feeling better mentally, but I notice that the psychological symptoms seem to be shifting into physical symptoms.
Interestingly, I experienced something similar while tapering, just the other way around: my mental symptoms became worse while the physical symptoms improved.
Has anyone else experienced this kind of shift between psychological and physical symptoms?
Duloxi’s taper progress
Dose (mg)
Mood (/10)
Cymbalta — 17,5mg(12mg) — 17 Jahre — holding -with clinician - 90 mg – 2021: First tapering attempt. 60 mg – 2023: Second tapering attempt. With a doctor's supervision—but unfortunately, a doctor who doesn't know how to properly taper off an antidepressant.
The shift you're describing is pretty common, symptoms often trade places as the nervous system recalibrates. Muscle aches are a classic physical withdrawal symptom
Wishing you the best!
