Damn! Discontinuing (slowly as advised) Pristiq is making me even more wild an anxious.I am jumping out of my skin and could burn holes in the wall with my stare. Without really thinking about it I started drinking at midday, self medicating I guess. So frustrating as I am coming off the Pristiq to try and stop this mixed state and rapid cycling but the side effects coming off it only make me more unwell. Hopefully they will pass soon.
