"i only gave viibryd a 5 out of 10 due to one thing: diarrhea.  if it wasn&#039;t for that i would still be taking it. it was a hit and miss thing for me. i would go over a week and be fine and then week after week i would have diarrhea at around 2-3 times a week.  tried it with food and after food and didn&#039;t seem to help. don&#039;t get me wrong, i can deal with a little diarrhea but this was insane diarrhea with bad stomach cramps.  took it around 6 months and weened myself off it. would not recommend quitting cold turkey. even weening myself off at 20mg&#039;s made me real irritable for about 2 weeks.
