Hi guys,
I am almost a month into my tapering of Pristiq.
I was switched from 7 years of Zoloft, because of a job last last August that sent me into severe depression, to Pristiq.
After gaining 35 pounds...High Blood pressure..being unemployed and it being the dead of Winter here;;;..I have tapered down to once-every-3-days of 50 mg's of pristiq ( smallest dose available).
Things were going pretty well, but for the last few days the depression has returned along with other symptoms.
Itching, fatique, aches and pains, trouble sleeping, anxiety and a "restless" feeling I have never experienced before.I cannot really explain this new symptom with words.
It is a feeling of...emptiness..or embarrasment..I dont feel like being around anyone...YET the isolation and loneliness is equally agonizing.
Its like an inner nervousness,,,,uncomfortable feeling....like something is just not quite right.
Any ideas? I know I am not being very descriptive
but I am really puzzeled by this emotion,..or feeling...or symptom, or what ever it is!Any help would be appreciated
BF
