    Extreme Sensitivity to stimulants

    I have a problem: I am drastically sensitive to any stimulants. I've always been very affected by even tiny amounts of caffeine (although that didn't stop me from consuming a lot of it in college, probably to my detriment).

    weaning off cymbalta

    Okay, I've been weaning off Cymbalta without any of the reported nastiness; thank-you Lord; in order to try Sam E or 5 htp instead. Has anyone used either of these to any success? I'm not generally a depressive person, until the pain gets real bad. And I (hope) I'm done grieving for the life...
