What are the side effects of 90mg of Cymbalta compared to 60mg?

the answer to you questions is that people get the same side effects that they do on lower doses.

I am a psychiatrist and has used cymbalta at 90mg and 120mg in very select patients.

I only increase it over 60mg if the patient is having no side effects. If they start to have side effects at these higher doses, i have them lower the dose back to where they were. Those who were able to tolerate it felt better.

Why do i keep having panic attacks each time i take any medication after only being off lexapro for a few days how long will this last because i have panic attacks taking my lexapro.?

You're experiencing withdrawal. You might try weening yourself off it instead of stopping abruptly. If your dosage was too high it could easily have caused problems. How long you'll feel the effects is hard to say. It depends how long you were on it. It's also fat-soluble and can remain in your brain tissues long after it's out of your bloodstream. Kinda like LSD.

When youou are forgetful get tired a lot and have dizzy spells and random panic attacks what is wrong with you?

What does it mean when you are stressed and you begin to stutter and your tongue hurts?

Stuttering while under stress is your adrenaline levels being high and your body's way of trying to slow itself down (this is if you are not a normal stutterer). A tongue hurting can be from the change in your speech and your tongue being used it ways its not used to. It can also be the result of too much chewing gum or chips or a "rough" food. At a certain age a burning tongue sensation is not uncommon with peri menopausal women. The stuttering should go away as soon as you are calm again. You may want to try writing rather than speaking when you find yourself that stressed.

How can you get over your separation anxiety?

Surround yourself with people who care about you and do activities that require you to think of the matter at hand. Idle time will take you back to the thoughts that make you anxious. When you do think about the seperation, rationalize it. Keep phone calls to a minimum as the constant reminder that you are seperated will make it harder to deal with. Instead, take some time out to write them short letters when you think of them and act as if you were just having a normal conversation with them...

GAD is Generalized Anxiety Disorder. It's "generalized" because the source of the anxiety cannot be identified. It use to be called "free-floating" anxiety. This just means the patient has anxiety but neither the doctor nor the patient can figure out what exactly is causing the anxiety.

A panic attack can be caused by the GAD condition. A panic attack is not what people generally imagine. It manifests in different forms in different people. It is a severe stress reaction, usually accompanied by hysterical crying or a sense of loss of control. Panic attacks usually only last for a few minutes but I have seen them last for up to an hour.
