If I'm correct, it appears that you used this antidepressant medication as a recreational drug as you have no mental issues. Did you take anything else that could have interacted with the pristiq? You are apparently quite intolerant of it. The side effect should dissipate by now. If you're not improving, get examined by a physician and not a psychiatrist.
