exercise exercise exercise......it releases endorphines that help stimulate the feel good hormones. Also get out in the sunlight as the vitamin D can also help combat depression naturally. Avoid taking herbal supplements that can treat depression such as St. Johns wort because, especial in SJW's case, it can cause serious side effects with your cymbalta and you don't want that.
If you are taking anti-depressants (which work to elevate seratonin levels in your brain), and they are not enough--you are still not feeling happy, content, or at peace-- you may have low endorphins. Healthy Endorphin Raisers:

Vitamin B complex and Carotenoid complex.
St John's wort is today most widely known as a herbal treatment for depression. In some countries, such as Germany, is commonly prescribed for mild depression, especially in children, adolescents, and where cost is a concern. Standardized extracts are generally available over the counter
