Who has taken Vraylar for Major Depression?
Just started 1.5mg last night and I’ve read a lot of post on different forums and it seems to break down 50% “it’s helpful” & 50% “it’s horrible.” I’ve taken too many drugs to mention over the last 18 years, plus tried ECT and Ketamine infusions but I can’t quiet the depression. Hoping for feedback. I’m Also on 3600mg gabapentin and 12.5mg Amitryptiline for nerve pain and 1mg Clonazepam for anxiety. I’m nervous about this drug.

The weight gain isn’t good either. I’ve gone up a pant size since I’ve been on it. But even with that, I will still take it since it’s the only MDD drug that’s helped. Amazing mood difference
Thank you for sharing your experience. It can be hard to evaluate if the pros of a drug outweigh the side effects. I am still waiting to see if Vraylar lifts my mood enough to make the restlessness worth it.
@emkaf I hope it helps your mood. Mine is so much better since I’ve been on it
It has helped me a Lil bit with my mood I'm still depressed but they just up the dose on it so I'll see how that works
