      Depending on chemistry. It may take a week up to a month. Maybe give it some time. Ofcourse you know your body better than anyone. Good luckšŸ˜Š

      There is only one way to check if the medicine is truly working: The Sara McLaughlin Test. Play the Peta video with In the Arms of the Angel playing in the background. To be sure it's a valid test result according to the DSMVI you have to make it to the part where she sings "glorious sadness" without crying.

          @tig21 What's the matter? Are you afraid to find out you can't hold up? Don't be too strong though, because apparently you are a sociopath if you make it to the "vultures and thieves" part.

      Vraylar didn't work for me. The psychiatrist I had at that time pushed it like crazy. Always raising the dosage. Because of her doing that, I have a strong dislike for vraylar
