Treating Pristiq Side Effects With Other Medications? (Top voted first)

Updated

I have been taking Pristiq for 4 days and am really struggling with the tiredness, bulging eyes feeling and nausea. Is there another medication that can be used to help treat these side effects, especially while adjusting to this new medication. I should add that 5 days ago I abruptly stopped taking my 150 mg Effexor after taking it for 3 years (I know that this probably was not wise to do - as I have tried to get off Effexor many times in the past - but was under the impression that I could go directly from one to the other).

I've been on antidepresants before and do remember that this goes away. I just don't know how long I have to hang in there.
