My Experience So Far With Viibryd

Updated

So far I am feeling good. almost finished with starter pack of viibryd 40 mg. I had side effects while on the 20.mg. But they have gone away. Dizziness,nauesea,stomach issues,insomnia,increased anxiety,and headaches are gone. I have greatly reduced anxiety and depression. And have went from taking 4 .25mg. Of xanax daily,to one xanax in the morning for my drive to work,if i'm off that day, I won't take any. Also, I would get horribly depressed during PMS. Time. Currently having PMS,but only have mild sadness and cramps. I have noticed increased energy as well. hoping the viibryd will continue working well for me.

Hi rainyblue,

Thanks for sharing your experience on Viibryd. It seems like everyone on this forum is having all sorts of different reactions to this drug.

If interested, you can read others' reviews on it by following the thread links below:
/Discuss/Viibryd-side-effects-221843.htm

/Discuss/Sleep-paralysis-w-hallucinations-227941.htm

I think most people who are taking Viibryd (or any medication) with good results tend to not have a reason to post in a public forum; so as I expected, most of the reviews are negative by nature and should not always reflect what you might be experiencing yourself.

I hope this helps!

Thanks David. Yes, you are right. I was talking to my physiatrist,and he basically said the same thing. He said if say someone goes to a restaurant and has a good meal, usually they won't review anything about it,but if they have a bad meal, then they complain and post bad reviews. Never thought about it that way. Shouldn't get worked up about peoples bad experiences with viibryd, if its working well for me. And I am pleased to say I feel awesome!

How long did it take for the headaches, dizziness, tired feeling to go away? I'm on day 9 at 10mg and want to wait to up it to 20mg to see if these subside first.
