avisa4306 Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Hi People! All I wanted was to switch from Pristiq 100mg to something that would allow me to want an intimate relationship. Must have been asking too much. Only problem with Pristiq was extremely dry mouth, waking up after 2 hours of sleep unable to get back to sleep and probably a little too happy ( lack of empathy, binge eating, etc). Started Fetzima Tuesday, no wean down from Pristiq. Wednesday extremely nauseous, hot flashes, sweating, racing heartbeat, vivid dreams the few hours I did sleep. Thursday more nausea, throwing up, jittery, hot flashes. Too miserable to stay at work. So I'm waiting to hear from my doc. I have no tolerance for stuff like this. Have been on meds for over 20 years. Wellbutrin, Effexor, Prozac. Never felt this bad! Good luck to all of us trying to manage this emotional disorder stuff.

olga Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 iamjustme, you should go to the forum for antidepressants and ask your question. I'm sure you'll get some feedback. Avisa, welcome to Crazyboards. I ask all new members to read the rules so you understand how we operate. It sounds like you have been trying for a long time to find the right combination of meds. It's very frustrating when the side effects far out-weigh the benefits of the drug. I hope you like our site and don't be afraid to ask questions. olga Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
