Hi all,

I've been on Pristiq for about 18 days now and was wondering if anyone else is on it? My Doc said it may take 5 weeks to know if it's helping or not, but my depression is kicking in strong and I feel so frustrated having to wait. Also the fact that I've been battling this for 11 years and still feel like I've made no progress.

Bump

I am also interested in this medication. Anyone?
If it wasn't for me, I'd be OK.

I have been on this medication for 13 days. I was on wellbutrion. The doctor said that this has less side affects. So I am with you. I have to wait and see. But it is worth the try I think.

I was on Pretiq for a while last winter. I hated it and felt worse while I was one it. However, have said that, these meds react so differently depending on the person so you really to have to wait and see. I hope it works out for you!
