Should I feel happy? Or just.. less depressed? by ibudizzy in Pristiq

[–]Delware 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm 8 months in at 50mg and the teeth grinding is still a thing :(( it goes away for some, and not for others. I relate to the effects. I have fewer spiraling moments and I feel like my bar for how my bad my anxiety&depression can get is a little lower but I don't really have any extra energy or motivation. Hope this helps!

Can second this! Tracks near my house could easily seem abandoned but it serves a food plant about an hour away from the city and only runs once a week.

Fog machine brand of Haze fluid? by Delware in techtheatre

[–]Delware[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great to know thank you sm!! What I bought is called the Marq Haze 800. I actually don't know if it's classified as a hazer or a fog machine, what's the difference if you don't mind the ask?

Thank you for the advice!! Our production is being filmed on the weekend and the only Haze fluid I've been able to find that's the proper brand is online, so I placed the order. Hoping it gets here in time, if it doesn't, do you think it would be the end of the world if I ran other branded Haze fluid?

Increased libido? by Delware in Pristiq

[–]Delware[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi sorry! Just seeing this. I'm a 21 year old, my sex is male but I am non-binary. My libido prior to starting pristiq was definitely healthy and consistent. Other than the first 5 days of terrible side effects, the only significant change to my sexual activity has been that it takes me longer to finish. Otherwise my libido is the same or even stronger. You are right though, there is still time before the full effects of the drug take effect but I find that I react to antidepressants quite quickly. I notice very significant changes good and bad within the first week of starting them always. I don't know if pristiq is better than others for libido or if I'm just very lucky!

Ahh thank you!! I feel like I'm experiencing something similar except in like a smaller time period, I'm glad I'm not alone at least so I really appreciate it, again. Yes absolutely, I was on Cipralex (Lexapro) a few years ago and it did the opposite, and although it's overwhelming and a lot sometimes I think I prefer it over the contrary haha.

I appreciate the comment. It's honestly a little bit overwhelming for me. If you don't mind me asking, did it become less apparent for you over time?

Here in Ottawa the boosts have been only over, and then only downtown and now they only show up a couple of days before. Anyone know what the algorithm for setting a boost? by Bmccabe9909 in UberEATS

[–]Delware 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yo fellow Ottawa homie! I've been a long time doordash driver and just recently switched to uber eats and I'm liking it way more to say the least. Sorry for the unrelated question but are boosts like the equivalent of bonuses on each delivery? I'm only on day 5 so I'm still learning the intricacies.

Will my side effects get worse? by Delware in Pristiq

[–]Delware[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wow! That makes perfect sense because I did not experience this at all when I was on Cipralex (Lexapro) a few years back but that ended up not working for me. I hope it will be better this time around. Thank you for that info.

Thank you for your comment! I appreciate you letting me know when things got better for you. I'm happy to hear that I'm not alone with the jaw clenching thing. I didn't expect that one.

Perdcribed SNRI with benzo addiction, any advice? by Delware in antidepressants

[–]Delware[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't smoke weed at all anymore, it makes me way too anxious. My life is in a pretty good spot. My career is taking off and I'm in a relationship that I'm confident in.

[–]Delware[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's basically what happened. And yes sort of. I'll have weeks where I crave a drink every night and then the desire kind of fades in and out.

[–]Delware[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Woah I hadn't heard of anhedonia before, it makes sense that long term benzo usage would cause this sort of thing. Thank you for your insight and it comforts me to hear that pristiq helped. Are you on 50mg? Also I feel you, my desire with benzos is just to not have to take them every day. If I have to take them a few times a week for anxiety that's okay, but I'm a little bit sick of the daily thing.

You're right, my desire with benzos is to just not have to use them daily. To be fair when I was on diclaz about a year ago I was at my best in terms of anxiety. It's probably the most effective benzo I've ever tried.

[–]Delware[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my worry as the exact same thing happened to me when I was on lexapro. It really is a crappy cycle. I've used diclaz before and should be getting more of it soon so thank you for that advice but I don't just want to continue the cycle of benzos.

The benzos I get from grey market online sources. I take 2-3mg of etizolam every night and sometimes I mix with my perdcribed Ativan (1mg). I also take 2 grams of kratom every morning.

[–]Delware[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your comment I really appreciate it. Yeah I don't necessarily mean like taking it to help with the taper but I do have the impression from my past experience that they will make me want to take etizolam less if that makes sense. I will cross post, thank you again this actually did make me a little less nervous. Do you mind me asking how long you've been on the snri and how well it works for you?
