"i tried pristiq, which had been listed on my genesight review in the positive column. was on it for three weeks and had to stop as i had developed hypermania: no sleep, talkative, spending, messy, walking around confused and generally felt very high. felt very unsafe driving and was also eating everything in sight until i had a stomach ache. gained weight and just felt plain bloated. while i recognized that something was wrong, i was not thinking straight enough too judge. fortunately, the prescriber recognized it and i am now stopped 3 days. don&#039;t feel great, but i am glad i was not on it  long enough to have withdrawal problems."
