Ending three weeks on Pristiq now. So far it seems to be ok. I had a bad reaction last week when i had 2 cocktails (last friday night) my reaction was almost like qualudes - major disorientation, rubber legs etc. Unfortunaltey my depression kicked back up earlier in the week for a few days (my Ivan score went up a lot) it took almost a week to get back to a lower score.

The reaction with alcohol was so bad I didnt even take a sip of a new wine my wife asked me to taste this evening for fear of a bad reaction again.

So if anyone is taking Pristiq stay clear of cocktails.

More in a week

Cheers
