In reply to Does lack of motivation from Pristiq ever go away?, posted by TriedEveryMedication on July 26, 2022, at 12:08:31
> Been on Pristiq since Dec. 2021. Started at 25mg for a couple months, went to 50 for quite awhile and now I've been on 100mg for 2.5 weeks.
>
> I feel like I just want to sit around and do nothing. Household chores are going undone. I barely can drag myself to the grocery store, only under threat of starvation.
>
> This lack of motivation seems to get worse the higher the dose I take.
>
> Just wondering if it goes away or should I start tapering and go off this. My p-doc wants me to try 100mg for 6 weeks just to be certain. Not sure I can make it another week. Not sure what to do.No, in my experience I felt better when I discontinued. Have you tried wellbutrin? That was the only med (and emsam) that didn't create apathy and loss of sensation.
