I feel like there's bugs crawling on and in my skin when I take vraylar. I don't feel that way after a few days off it. I also don't feel as angry nor as depressed. I'm hoping my appointment goes well this evening, as my pdoc has said she'll stay late to see me. She might get upset with me for going off it and back to another antipsychotic without her consent(I had some Seroquel leftovers), but I feel better this way. I'm going to tell her everything I've done and hope she's ok with it.

Sounds like you truly had to get off of Vraylar!
Hopefully, your pdoc will be understanding.  WC

Why did your pdoc take you off Seroquel before?
Are you willing to go back on it "full time" again? Pdocs aren't terribly surprised when one of their clients is non-compliant with meds. They have some clients who do it all the time. So they're pretty understanding and I doubt will get mad. They'd rather find a treatment plan that works for you than force you to stick to something you don't like or something that harms you. |

You may need a different med. Hopefully your pdoc agrees. Vraylar gave me akathisia. I felt the need to move constantly and couldn't sleep because I was so restless.

She said I was doing things exactly right. I shouldn't be talking vraylar and to go back on Seroquel. She didn't take me off Seroquel before, but a hospital did. It can interact with tegretol, which I take. She sent a prescription for exactly the amount I was taking. I see her again at the end of the month

How are you feeling now? Is the interaction ok?

Definitely truthfulness is best. I'm glad you and your psychiatrist had a productive session.
My Tegretol XR interacts with a couple of my meds, but with the proper doses it's fine. |

I feel a lot better being off vraylar and back on Seroquel. I'm sleeping very nicely overall, though I'm told I talk/sing a lot while I'm sleeping. I feel like I'm thinking more clearly and though I'm depressed, I'm feeling less depressed overall.
