I am sorry you are going through this. I have had a somewhat similar experience and the pharmaceutical companies don’t care. There needs to be a major overhaul in this country regarding mental health. I am talking duloxetine. I started out on Effexor, generic venlafaxine. Have switched between the two a few times over the years. Just wondering if you have tried it.

That is what I was researching online. It looks like Effexor XR and Pristiq are the most equivalent, but I’m afraid of all of these genetics after what I went through. I guess I can always try the generic form and if it doesn’t work, see if my doctor can do a brand penalty exception with the insurance to cover the brand name. I still can’t believe this is happening. It feels like I’m in a nightmare. May I ask how the Effexor compares to Cymbalta?
