Should you end up seeing a doctor, keep an eye on yourself with the meds. Better yet have someone else keep an eye on you. It isn't common but SSRIs can mess with your head in some odd ways and affect your behavior in ways you won't be able to recognize yourself. If your doc wants to do benzos or sleeping pills make sure you keep that short term. The last thing you want right now is an addiction to deal with. You've got a studio, are you sure you'll be ok on your own? How long would you be able to disappear for before somebody noticed?

Sexual side effects, yo) from Cymbalta, a very potent but popular SSRI I agree. You probably need something, but unless you're as depressed as I am, keep away from the stuff. Try Lorazepam as it's the least side effect riddled that I've tried as far as antidepressants go. But if you do need to get on Ativan and an SSRI, do it. It's worth it to be able to cope and not go through suicide attempts. I'd also tack on that if a doctor offers you Klonopin/Clonazapam then turn it down. Over doing it on xanax might cause you to lose a night but kpins can make you lose days at a time if you aren't very careful.
