Nooo. I had an 18 month, I can't get out of bed, eat, bathe, kind of depression. Really the most horrible, frightening experience in my life. I have been on ADs since Prozac came out but this was something else.
I'll tell you more sometime if you want to know. But to answer your question about Pristiq- I had no side effects except for one thing- I have been anorgasmic since I have been on it. Now I have to say I had less than no interest in sex before I started it so the data is less than perfect and it's not supposed to have sexual side effects in women... Not supposed to... But it is an SSRI/SNRI. I have a bad feeling about the SSRI part and sexual side effects. Time will tell.
But, I have found it a great AD and I have been through them all including Effexor. I don't know what makes this one different. Probably the combo of meds I am on. I was taking 300mg of seroquel when I started it. I am now down to 200mg and planning on going off. I am hoping that I don't miss the seroquel but am a bit nervous that it has been making a contribution. Didn't do much at all for me before I started the Pristiq tho.

By the way. You are absolutely right: it is the refridgerator. And I think a good diagnosis is important too.

Take care. You'll get this sorted out.

PS I used Pharmawebcanada.com. They seemed very legit.
