depression
"I was only on Pristiq for 3 days before I had to stop taking it cold turkey. I've dealt with restless leg syndrome since my childhood (I'm now 20), but it would only affect me once or maybe twice per year. Out of the 3 days of taking Pristiq, I suffered from terrible restless legs while trying to sleep for 2 nights. I think the 2nd day I took it I had already experienced a bit more energy and felt sort of happier and less stressed, but unfortunately I cannot continue to take it due to the negative side effect.

By the way, I know it's bad to stop taking anything cold turkey, and I'm currently suffering from that as well because my doctor hasn't returned my calls regarding the issue in 4 days. "
