"i have mixed feelings about viibryd. i&#039;m switching off of it now, after about a year on it. i found that i did help, but seemed to make me more anxious at first. i didn&#039;t have any other side effects.  after being on it for a while, i noticed if i was even a couple hours late on my dose, i would be a complete mess--crying, panicking, just feeling terrible. i&#039;ve never had such a strong reaction to just being late on taking a medication. i&#039;m not even talking about missing a full day.  this is the main reason why i wanted to get off of viibryd. i stayed on it for fear of withdrawal symptoms and my depression and anxiety worsened. currently taking celexa and today is my first day with no viibyrid."
