Hi, I'm Acariglia

September 18, 2026··
Currently cross tapering from duloxetine to Prozac for severe anxiety, ocd, agoraphobia. Was dropped far too quickly from 120mg of duloxetine, currently at 15mg duloxetine and 30mg of Prozac struggling with symptoms that change daily, anxiety, headaches, sweating, jolting awake at night. Looking for support that I won’t feel this way forever.

Prozac — 30mg — 50 days — holding | Cymbalta — 15mg — 10 years — actively tapering | Klonopin — 2mg — 25 years — holding | without clinician

Hi Acarglia, Welcome to the community! I’m also currently taking 15 mg of duloxetine, and over the past three months I’ve had to gradually increase my dose from 12 mg to 15 mg. How can I support you?

Cymbalta — 15mg(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.
