I am trying to come off of Pristiq slowly tapering!  I just feel so sick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  It's a nightmare I want to just cry i'm miserable!  I have heart palpitations I'm very nauseas anyone else get this way?  How long will this take to go away I can't go on like this.  I am doing 50mg every other day i'mg oing to do this for a few weeks then try and break them in half being that 50 is the lowest dose.  I want to feel better.  It is also making me think crazy things...i'm lead to believe this is the medication I was never like this.  I have nightmares :*(

Thank you very much for your concern!  I'm trying hard to hang in there!  I know this is a long process and a struggle!  I'm just not myself.  My outlook on thigns have been different ever since being on this.  It's just like I don't care what people think, how I look and that's totally unlike me.  I want this to all go away please I pray to God to help me.  I am taking klonopin also and hopefully it iwll help me get through this too

i am from the substance abuse forum and for one,  i am appalled no one has written you.  are you okay?  i would really like to hear that you are still fighting it out.  there are a lot of people supporting each other over in the substance abuse.  i hope you have already found it.  it's not just addicts either, many people who got hooked accidently.  it's really about how to make the withdrawal endurable so we get out of this mess.  i am 3 weeks clean and still having problems but it had to be done.  i have heart palpitations too but i have a drug for it.  maybe your doctor can get it.  also there are homeopathic remedies like hylands that can work.  if you want to compare nightmares search for emilypost journals ,  she wrote a lot , and it's very entertaining and supportive.
