Does anyone have experience with Pristiq??

I'm currently on a few SSRI's including Abilify, Wellbutrin, and Fetzima. I don't think the Fetzima is really working, and I have read that a lot of people have success with Pristiq. I was just wondering if anyone had experience with Pristiq, how did it make you feel? Did you have more energy? I am going to my Psychiatrist in a week or two, and I was thinking of asking specifically for Pristiq since I've seen a lot of reviews that favor it. Please reply if you've taken Pristiq or if you've had success with any other drugs. Thanks!

If you don't get any replies, you may want to post under general discussion. I just saw someone else asking about medications over there, so I think it's okay.

I have taken Pristiq for many years and it worked pretty well. I'm not saying I am a super happy person but I'm able to live a much more 'normal' life. Recently, however, I've begun experiencing anxiety so my doc is switching me to Celexa which I guess works on both depression and anxiety. Haven't gotten it yet so I haven't swtiched from the Pristiq yet. Good luck!
