Brintellix (vortioxetine) hits a lot of different serotonin receptors. Mania is listed as a possible side effect, but this might be a "class effect" that they felt was prudent, even though they might not really have seen it with the drug.
As of now, there are no reports of vortioxetine causing mania on Medline/PubMed.

So you think mania and psychosis risk go hand in hand?

I don't think anyone can know for certain this early on. I know that's not helpful for you, but...yeah...its a new drug.

SSRI`s can induce Psychosis? But, can't Psychosis sometimes lead to violent behavior?

The question is, how rare is psychosis with Nortriptyline...
I am a bit worried.

I have it at home. I am kind of wary about it though.
I feel lost. I have significant brain fog. Cant follow comedy.
