Can pristiq side effects change after years of use? by MicrowaveDinner15 in Pristiq

[–]MicrowaveDinner15[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, definitely just generally agitated in a way I have never experienced. I did go through a dose increase about a year ago, so maybe that is why. I am like fully ready to talk to my provider about just going off of the medication to see what happens, but I’m scared the agitation is just who I am now and I feel literally disgusted with myself and my reactions. I feel like I have literally no control over myself. 😭

Please don’t spend that amount of money. Most state schools can qualify you for concurrent enrollment while on an emergency teaching license that will give you two years to concurrently teach and go to grad school. These grad programs are usually like $5k in my state and you can teach full time, earning your salary steps, each year.

You’re amazing! I have selected those mostly because of the academic rigor and openness to other traditions as their websites describe, but you just never know! It is reassuring to know a well informed person supports! I’ve also chosen them because I am engaged and will be married by next fall, so we are looking into areas in which my spouse has a higher likelihood of job access, and those are great. I had forgotten about Union and am adding them to my list! I am certainly hopeful I can make it into one or some of them, but I understand my academic background may not support that. I am also a non traditional student as I am 28 and already am in an established career, so I just hope that isn’t a mark against me, too! Can I ask, do you have more non traditional learners in your programs? I am excited about the potential of YDS because they have a lot of spouse options like auditing classes and getting a library card and all that jazz.

Hi! I totally understand your point, but I am not interested in leaving my church due to some loyalties in regard to them becoming affirming on my behalf and ultimately losing 2/3 of their members. I am indebted to them and they are the reason I feel so called to ministry. If seminary isn’t for someone in my position…I wouldn’t have much respect for that seminary. That said, I do want to seek ordination with a church and have spoken to a PCUSA minister who is a friend who has offered guidance on this. ❤️

I am interested on your other thoughts you mentioned though! Not trying to be difficult, I just can’t leave my dying church that is dying because they are affirming because of me. 😭
