> I was planning on taking it everyother day then every two days. But maybe I'll just take prozac and decrease that since introducing it after 2 days off is kinda stepping backwards and prozac shhould be a smoother way to decline.

It might be counterproductive to take Pristiq intermittently. You might experience withdrawal spikes. That could sensitize you to having more pronounced withdrawal symptoms. It would be analogous to alcohol withdrawal kindling. I think you would be better off taking smaller fractional doses every day if you want to go the route of cross-titration. I'm hoping you will be able to simply cross-over.
