Cool science
I’m excited to switch over to the desvenlafaxine (brand name
Pristiq
in USA) to see how much better I can feel.

VIIBRYD or pristiq problems?
I’ve been off
pristiq
since dec 26, 2018. I’ve been foggy since day 1 on VIIBRYD and have been taking it since about Dec 1, 2018. My mood did improve but I started to have vision problems and anxiety is so high.

Desperate: 5 years of crippling anxiety then depression
He cannot work, he’s lost all his friends, he’s been to therapists and psychiatrists, been on many meds, and even took the genetic test to determine the correct psychotropic (
Pristiq
). He spends most days in the dark. Our marriage is to (possibly past?) the breaking point.

Staying strong when feeling weak
The APN has me on
Pristiq
, trintillex, Rexulti and Xanax, I also take omega 3 fish oils everyday. I’ve been very bless to get my retirement pension from my employer. I’ve been a bodybuilder- weightlifter all my life. I don’t really know what’s happening lately but I’ve been feeling pretty sad.

Question about ramping up or down antidepressants
At any rate, due to depression and anxiety, they ramped me up on
Pristiq
and it took 6 weeks before most of the horrible side effects went away (high blood pressure, more anxiety, more fatigue) but the pain increased head pain never has after 8 weeks.

New here struggling with anxiety.
Started
pristiq
and have now been switched to 30mg cymbalta and 15mg buspirone twice a day. Also was told to take methylfolate 15mg. Now I struggle with anxiety especially in the morning. When it is bad I take 0.5mg Ativan but it is still bad. Any hope for me?

4th ECT Treatment
My doctor has told me to continue taking my
Pristiq
and my Vraylar. The pharmacy has had a delay processing the Vraylar, so I haven't had any in around 4-5 days. I'm assuming that's why my mood has been much lower. Do any of you have experience with ECT and/or Vraylar? Thanks so much!

Hopeless...nothing will get better
Cymbalta, Bupropion, Fluoxetine,
Pristiq
, Effexor, Abilify, Lamictal, Paxil, etc. etc. etc. Nothing ever really helped. Most recently I was on Trintellix starting last July. Then I started getting strange visible bleeding in my urine!! Horrifying and scary.

Medicine is working I think- it feels weird...
I just got a new psychiatrist a few months ago and with her I started taking
Pristiq
(my third try at an SSRI). I don't want to get ahead of myself in case it's just a spoof, but I think the medicine is actually working. I feel more normal than I can ever remember feeling.

OCD and anxiety
The meds are Trintillex,
Pristiq
, Rexulti, and Xanax. I also see a hormone Dr every other week for low T. I do struggle with OCD symptoms everyday and my Dr thinks I’m medication resistant. Anyways I come in here to vent, I love this forum.

Can anyone help?
I stared
Pristiq
and although the twitches were occasionally still there they weren't bad. Well for monetary reasons I had to stop them and oh man the twitches are back with a vengeance. I'm searching Google and of course I just had a major panic attack and convinced myself again that I had ALS.

Pristiq and blood pressure
Any ways he told me that the
pristiq
can be raising my blood pressure. I just took my pressure and it was 155/96. Don’t know if it’s my anxiety.........Samson

Why can't I just say no to caffeine?!
Finally did a gene site test and have started on
Pristiq
. The med is ok so far but I'm struggling this morning because my cycle is late for the second month in a row and I'm convinced its cancer. I have an appt on the 17th.

Medication Update
Psychiatrist added 2 mg of Abilify to my current 150 mg of
Pristiq
. She said it should shut off my intrusive, obsessive thoughts about my symptoms, improve my mood, and we hope it will make me feel great again.
