My inclination is to first discontinue the Pristiq. If the objective is to remain free of depression and GAD, you might as well find out as soon as possible whether or not you need the primary drug that is supposed to manage these core symptoms. I would then get rid of the trazodone. Leaving the Librium in place might mitigate the withdrawal syndromes of the other two drugs. Then, you can begin the taper process to discontinue the Librium.

Good luck.
