I wish you the same... I really hope it will work !!! I will think positively!!! ;-)I even dont feel the usual "Effexor-XR" side-effect of a decrease appetite loss, I feel no side-effect at all... i'm so surprise that I will write it again and again in my posts!!! hahaha
Life cant be worse and the Pristiq cant worse it more...the no side-effect help a lot... ( I mention it again...lol), that's a major improve over all the others SSRI's and SRNI's... so I have nothing to loose about wating 6 or 8 weeks before I see some improvements...
Being on that med for a complete different problem than only a regular depression ( I dont mean that depression is not a HARD and DIFFICULT disease, that's not the point)... I have a atypical depression (lost of motivation, lack of interests, eat more, sleep less, not sucidal at all) that atypical depression is comming from my untreated problems of SAD, GAD, panic disorder with agoraphobia and body dismorphic... I hope the PRistiq will help me...
SAD tend to be very hard to treat when it's the primary problem, but the primary problem seem to change to another one at some point in my life, now I experience more panic attack with agoraphobia and without agoraphobia than anything else...yes I have a constant SAD, cant go alone outside my house to do my regular activities like going at the shopping center alone, but sometimes I force myself to do it and each time I see this as a major improve... thanks for the CBT where at least, I learn the technic of exposure time in social situation... I go there, stay there until my anxiety level increase and decrease to the starting level...and go out of that public place as soon as my level of anxiety return to the normal... Anyway....
So another time, I wish you good luck and keep the faith... see all the small improves as a victory!!! ;-)
Have a nice weekend !
Vincent ;-)
