Switching from desvenlafaxine (Pristiq) to dertraline (Zoloft)?

Posted on 12-Jul-2023 - Last updated: 12-Jul-2023

I have been on Pristiq for about 6 years and have never reached a point where I have felt I was "living" my life. Today my doctor has asked me to changed from Pristiq to Zoloft. I will taper off and then on over the next 2 to 3 weeks. I have Valdoxan for the evening and some 2mg Valium in case things go real bad. I have changed medication once before and it was not enjoyable. Has anyone done this switch? What can I expect? Any advice or strategies to help me through? Thank you for your input, anything is helpful.
