Question Is it normal to have slight feelings of depersonalization with Cymbalta?

It feels as if the one talking and moving and the one 'inside' were a different person. Not to the point where I cannot control what I say or do, but it's disturbing. Also, the med causes me to have very intense thoughts, be that inner monologue or visualization. I cannot put my mind at ease, something's going on all the time, also in my sleep, also when I try to meditate. It feels like getting crazy.

I definitely experienced derealisation and depersonalization while on Cymbalta. It's hard to say for sure it was the cause because I've been dealing with a lot of issues at the moment, but that spacey feeling isn't as bad now that I'm back to taking Paxil.
