Anhedonia is a symptom of depression but it is also one of PAWs (Post-acute Withdrawal Syndrome) symptoms. I've never experienced anhedonia in my life until coming off Paxil. I've been on Prozac, Brintellix, and Lamictal. Non of these drugs helped with anhedonia. I don't want to try the ****** SSRIs or SNRIs. Any suggestions?

It can aggravate anxiety, yes, but I found the trade-off worth it, personally. I hope you can find something that works.

I'm taking Pristiq now. This is the second day. Yesterday, I had bad insomnia. I hope it will go away with time. I do feel this med is energizing. Lets hope for the best.
