Effexor does have more dosing options, but its still a stronger SRI than NRI and thats why I wanted to try a TCA. The NRI part of pristiq kicks in right away, it was stimulating and I couldn't sleep the first night but I felt better after a couple days. Then after a couple weeks the serotonin starts to increase and it does away with the noradrengeric benefits and starts to feel like another SSRI. 2nd generation TCAs aren't strong SRIs like the Effexor and pristiq.


Post-SSRI syndrome: iatrogenic anhedonia, memory and concentration problems, sexual dysfunction. [NOTE no sadness or anxiety]
Location:USA
Currently taking 25mg Lamictal.
