Anyone ever switch from Pristiq to Zoloft? I went off Pristiq a while back because I wanted to get pregnant, but some depressive symptoms came back (and some anxiety attacks which are a new thing) ...

I stayed on lexapro during pregnancy. 20mg. Healthy baby. I’ve learned that me without lexapro is a crazy person.

Three weeks in and the insomnia is so awful. Only at 50 mg still, so I’m not sure if I should go up or down.

...and my doctor does not want me to go back into Pristiq if I’m planning on getting pregnant. I’ve talked with a family medicine doctor and a friend whose a med student and they think my doc is just using an over abundance of caution here. Two weeks into Zoloft and I’ve got head aches and sleeplessness and it sucks.

It’s hard to comment on medications, but my psych told me it’s trial and error to find what works best for you.
