I started taking 20 mg of cymbalta a month ago and stopped cold turkey 4 days ago. My blurred vision and extreme fatigue have not gotten better. How long will it be before my vision clears up and I can stop sleeping all day?

Stopping cold turkey was sort of an accident. We had a camping trip last weekend and I forgot to bring my cymbalta with me. I am glad I stopped though, from what I have read "weaning" is no different from stopping cold turkey and going off this drug after long term use is horrible. I'm just really concerned about my vision. I have a call into my doctor and am awaiting response.

It should be okay in a week. May be in 15hrs if you are lucky.

Why did you stop cold turkey? That was a bad thing to do. You need to go see a doctor/psychiatrist right away. You can cause serious harm to yourself stopping like that. Sorry if I scare you, but its true.
