For Major Depressive Disorder "I switched from Celexa to Viibryd. I felt good on Celexa, but lower motivation and sex drive. Viibryd, I immediately felt a mental difference. Not a good one. I had intrusive thoughts that grew and grew. Even waking up in the night with them. Irritability, anxiety, and depression grew. I felt like I couldn't control my thinking. Constant crying and anger/edginess. I did have more of a sex drive, but my mood ruined that. Viibryd is a SPARI, not an SSRI. I have tapered off and started Celexa again, feeling better already."

For Major Depressive Disorder "I had a horrible experience with Viibryd. It caused me to have extreme rage, horrible nightmares, and interrupted thoughts. It was terrifying because I felt completely out of control."

For Depression "My wife started taking Viibryd and she got every bad side effect. Violent, angry, mania, and paranoia. That is truly the drug from hell! She would scream at me for hours and then started hitting and slapping me. I had to move out of the house and get an apartment, and we are probably getting divorced. Viibryd ruined my marriage..."
