Hi friends. I have been on most drugs for my depression and I know they help me some. However, I have been so down lately that I am considering a med change (of course I will be talking with my pill doc first). I saw an ad for Pristiq and it looked good on paper, but I was hoping some of you can tell me how it worked or didn't work for you. I am currently taking Welbutrin, Cymbalta, Trazadone, Diazapam as needed, and a benzo sleep med as needed. Thanks for any input you may provide.
peace

My experience has been a positive one. Before this I was taking Lexapro but the pdoc changed it, I don't really know why. I also took Bupropion along with the Pristiq but now I am no longer taking that either. The Bupropion made me a little tense physically. Pristiq seems to work very well and I would say give it a try.

Thanks 326engr. I took my first dose this morning and I am taking it with Bupropion. Will keep people posted on my progress, hopefully.
