Ask your doc for a script for fluoxetine 20mg (Prozac)
Take 2 per day for 1 week, then one per day for 1 week, then one every other day for one week
It will supress the withdrawl symptoms from Pristique, but because it has a very long half life, it shouldnt cause any discintinuation effects of its own.
Also, ask the doc for a few tablets of a benzo - Ativan or Xanax or Valium..... you can take one of those when you feel particularly bad.... even 10 pills would be ahelp.
