Weaning off of Pristiq

Hi. I am on week 525 mg of Pristiq and feeling absolutely awful. I spoke to my psychiatrist this morning and she said I can stop taking it. She said I can either take 25 mg every other day for a week or if I feel OK just stop it completely. Has anybody had success coming off with minimal side effects?

Hi @amandakw75, I'm tagging @dollardylan1 @debdrama @kpprice @jmgrn65 @liladee who know what it is like to taper of Pristiq and who can share their experiences and tips.

Amanda, did you decide to take 25 mg every other day for a while? Have you stopped? How are you doing?
