*Whenever it is used for depression, it is most usually prescribed for *Major Depressive Disorder*, which is different from other milder forms of depression. I currently take Cymbalta 60mgs. and it has done a good job at getting the edge off of my severe depression. (Last hospitalised for it in June of last year.) As far as it's ability to diminish neuropathic pain, I'm not really sure, as I take 2400 mgs of neurontin per day, and could possibly credit my improvement to it.* ** *Gracie*
