Way to go, especially with the klonopin. Desvenlefaxine is what i’ve been switch too recently. May ask what your side effects were for you. Im afraid it makes me anxious. And thats a major problem for me

Were you switched from effexor to pristiq? And still had increased anxiety? I'm supposed to do this in a few days, and don't need any more anxiety!

I had anxiety attacks at night sleeping, that's how bad my anxiety got. Klonopin helped that. But answering your question. The desvenlafaxine was much like the effexor. The only side effect I got was a little dizziness when I dropped 50 milligrams. Each time. I've started week 3 of a total of 3 weeks. No dizziness yet. At the end of this week I stop it completely and start a rather benign ssri Prozac. I assume with the total stop of the desvenlafaxine I will get something. We'll see. 6 days left.
