I've been having a weird time lately and hoping for some insight. 

For the past week, maybe two weeks, I've been in a bit of a fog. Feeling somewhat checked out. Find myself staring at nothing and spacing out. My spouse will ask if I am ok and I snap out of it. I feel slightly numb? 

I've been diagnosed Bipolar 2. I take Lamictal and Pristiq. I've had dissociation before, but that was before my provider added the antidepressant. 

Question being: does this sound like it could be a side effect of the Pristiq? A true dissociative state? Or am I just in the depressed cycle now?

  
I see my psych provider in two weeks; I just have a hard time articulating what's going on sometimes. Thanks for your insight!
