Benzodiazepine withdrawal and SRI withdrawal/rebound depression can look similar.

I think experimenting with the benzodiazepine makes sense. It will give you a quick answer, and you would only have to do it once. If taking a dose after the onset of your afternoon syndrome causes the syndrome to disappear, then you have your answer. If it doesn't, then that leaves open the possibility that you had not been taking enough Pristiq. I think a loss of effect of Adderall would produce great fatigue.

It is too early for me to remark on the Savella except to say that it is not making me feel worse. This is a good thing. The last two drugs worsened my depression.
