Vraylar is designed to be effective for both manic and depressive episodes but I was so out of my mind manic, I haven’t been that manic since I started depakote five years ago. That always kept a lid on it.
I had a similar experience on Vraylar last thanksgiving and had to discontinue and switch back to Zyprexa. I stopped sleeping and it was clear that my racing thoughts (wonderful and creative as they were...) and hypersexuality in thought (not actions) would soon devolve into a full blown mania with not sleeping at all. Zyprexa put a lid on it in 1-2 days.
