Had my first anxiety attack
I started taking
Pristiq
for the depression and has helped until lately. The depression is not much worse but my anxiety has escalated. I do not understand why this is happening or where to go for help. I welcome suggestions based on experience.

I’m new here! Long history of chronic depression and anxiety. I’m 73 now. Specifically right now I have a question about Vybriid.
Pristiq
, Vybriid and one other. I tried
Pristiq
which didn’t seem to help and was extremely constipating. I cut down the
Pristiq
to 50 mgs every other day. My doctor prescribed Vybriid. I took one dose and immediately felt very sick, which I thought was food poisoning.

14 year battle
The doctors just switched my to
Pristiq
about 1.5 weeks ago, so I’m patiently waiting for it to hopefully start working.

Xanax
My Dr has me on
pristiq
and trintillex. She also has me on Xanax 0.5 3x daily as needed. I find lately that I’ve been taking the 3 a day. I normally only take them when I need to, but recently that’s been every day.

Struggling with severe anxiety
Just waiting to have the hearing is nerve racking I’ve been on so many meds but now I’m on
Pristiq
, and I also take Xanax as needed. I’ve been needing Xanax everyday for the last few days. Sometimes I feel like I’ve let my daughter down. She’s only 7 and she’s my world.

What a freakin weekend
I’m taking
pristiq
100mgs every day and Xanax, but it can still be a struggle. I have a little girl just 7 years old, she’s so cute, I would give my life for her. She absolutely adores me. She must’ve called me at least 10 times today waiting for me to pick her up.

Why won't my symptoms go away?!
I notice that PMS always makes my anxiety and symptoms SO much worse.. my medication (
Pristiq
150 mg) has helped a lot, but not enough for me to be living a normal life again.. I can't continue living like this, something has to change for me.

Question for the ladies - TMI post.
Has anyone else had menstrual irregularities due to an anti depressant,
pristiq
in particular? Trying not to be worried it’s something more cynical 😩

Quitting Pristiq....

Pristiq
?? Its an antidepressant that works great except I cannot handle side effects such as the horrific sweating!!! I stopped the
pristiq
5 days ago and still having the sweating but I think it takes at least 2 weeks for withdrawal.

Feeling so miserable!!😭😭
I just quit smoking, coffee and my antidepressant
Pristiq
!!! Omg I don't know why I'm doing it at the same time but I desperately needed to stop smoking!!! As far as the antidepressant, I had to stop it to cause the sweating last all day and is beyond horrific!!!! I had no choice.

I'm Jenn :)
He put me on Lamitcal and Gabapentin along with
Pristiq
. I'm 16 weeks pregnant and my OB switched the
Pristiq
to Zoloft. I just feel paralyzed...I have felt that way for many years since pregnant with my third. It was PPD, then PPA and I was hospitalized during the fourth pregnancy.

Another one of those days
I’ve been on so many meds and now I’m going to try
Pristiq
. I’ve been on Effexor for a few years. It gave me asthesia. I know I’ve got so many things to be grateful for. I have a loving daughter, her grandparents are such a huge support.

Excessive sweating😌
I'm taking
pristiq
and I'm taking oxybutnin to help with the sweating but it doesn't even help at all. My hair is still drenched from an hour ago!! I cannot live like this. In sweating in every area there is sweat glands which unfortunately are everywhere!!! Please any advice would be really great!

Antidepressant medications suck ! *** Rant warning
I haven’t slept well since I started taking
Pristiq
. My doc wants to give me more meds that ofcourse that will add more side effects. I’m getting ready to stop taking
Pristiq
all together because I need my sleep back! I’ll take my anxiety back for sleep.
