Thank you all for your replies! c: The comment about lamictal dosage helps, because I keep worrying my dose is high because of how studies claim doses over 200 mg make no difference, despite tons of peoples' experiences.

I feel maybe slightly better today than yesterday when I was obsessively worrying, but still weird. I can't decide whether this is bad increased anxiety and I need to just hurry and get on the Pristiq or something ASAP, or whether the weirdness is a sign I need to slow things down.

I feel this little bit of hypersensitivity and increased anxiety, and a feeling of increased agoraphobia even though I haven't left my house yet to know how I'd really feel when out. The weird hypersensitivity and stuff almost reminds me of something I felt as things were getting really bad in 2014, a couple months before I ended up in a psychotic break (not like straight up bipolar psychosis, there were a lot of other factors involved). It's probably just anxiety stuff and I'm overthinking everything I feel, but it freaks me out. I'm hyper-vigilant of any little sign that things could be getting that way again.

So I'm not sure whether I should go ahead and start the Pristiq tonight or not. :/
I'm gonna research Latuda and the other meds mentioned, though if I do start up Pristiq I'd wait a bit to start anything else. If it's safe Pristiq may be worth trying now since I already have it, even if I hate what I've heard about the withdrawals. I wish my psych were more helpful, then maybe I'd have more hope he'd have ideas and actually help me make a choice and it might be more worth waiting til then to start something else instead before Pristiq.
