Transitions between mania or hypomania – and depression. Seek psychiatric treatment if bipolar symptoms resurface following Vraylar discontinuation.Brain fog: Once you’ve discontinued Vraylar, you might experience constant or intermittent bouts of “brain fog.” Brain fog is a non-medical term used to describe disorganized, foggy, or unclear thinking in withdrawal. The brain fog that occurs in the aftermath of Vraylar cessation could be attributable to fluctuations in neurotransmitters; specific withdrawal symptoms such as anxiety, depression, fatigue, etc. – or a relapse of a preexisting neuropsychiatric disorder.Brain zaps: A rather unique, yet disconcerting symptom of Vraylar withdrawal is “brain zaps.” Brain zaps are described as jolts, shocks, or zaps of what feels like electricity throughout the brain. It is believed that changes in neurotransmission of serotonin during withdrawal along with high stress could induce these zapping sensations during withdrawal in a subset of individuals.Cognitive impairment: Cognitive impairment or dysfunction can occur in Vraylar withdrawal due to imbalanced neurochemistry. Dealing with high stress and/or sleep cycle changes following Vraylar cessation might also contribute to cognitive impairment. What’s more, cognitive impairment following Vraylar discontinuation could be due to reemergence of neuropsychiatric symptoms (untreated schizophrenia and bipolar disorder can impair cognition).Concentration problems: A domain of cognition that may seem severely impaired after quitting Vraylar is attention. You may struggle maintaining concentration or focus while working or conversing with others. It might feel like you’ve somehow experienced brain damage from the process of discontinuing Vraylar. To cope with the concentration deficits in withdrawal, it may be helpful to reduce stress, get sufficient exercise, eat a balanced diet, and optimize your sleep.Confusion: Mental confusion might occur while withdrawing from Vraylar. The confusion could be due to an overlap of withdrawal-related neurochemical adjustments and a return of a preexisting neuropsychiatric condition. Confusion may be accompanied by memory lapses and/or difficulty recognizing familiar environments.Depersonalization: Certain individuals my experience depersonalization when withdrawing from Vraylar. Depersonalization is commonly described as a feeling as though you’ve lost your identity, sense of self, or authentic personality. Depersonalization in withdrawal might be caused by neurotransmitter adjustments, excessive stress, and/or lack of adequate sleep. Assuming
