My doctor just switched me to desvenlafaxine a few months ago, and it's so much better than anything else I've tried! Of course everyone responds to medication differently so there's no way to know if it'll work for you, but if others aren't working then I would go with what your doctor suggests. You do have to be careful about taking it regularly because missing a dose can cause side effects. I feel so much better on it though :)
