Anyone been helped who suffer with chronic anxiety with Pristiq? Last time I took it I had a few great days, but some other situations I felt waves of anxiety and near panic attacks and could only tolerate it for about 3 weeks on the drug. This was while taking benzos and buspar. Also I remember during the end of the trial I was getting more fatigued at the end. I liked how the pristiq didn't cause the gastrointestinal problems that Cymbalta had, but the Pristiq wasn't nearly as calming for me (no where near like the original effexor was). I was wondering if I should give it another chance (say 8 weeks-if I can endure it) to see if it gets better or likely it will not improve to to that level? Any experience appreciated.
