My point is, im having a depressing day today. Sorry if i repeated myself from my last entry. Same concerns, but mood is worse today.
Ooooh my goodness I’ve gained 12lbs on vraylar since February! It just makes me so hungry! I lost 25mg from my heaviest two years ago and kept it off and now I’ve gained half of it back because of this damn med. I’m with you, I’m going to ask to go off of it. It’s not working at all anyway!

Keep advocating for yourself, we shouldn’t have to take crap from our pdocs just because they “know better”.
