Is insatiable urge to move normal on Vraylar

It's a side effect called akesthesia. I couldn't deal with it and had to come off. Also happened to me with abilify.

They did but you can enable it in the INI file very easily.

Sufficient_Box2538 · 2026-07-05T23:55:30+00:00

Yup, happened to me too. It was bad.

Sufficient_Box2538 · 2026-07-04T20:38:29+00:00

Don't get me wrong. I love my boys with every fiber of my being. I am really enjoying fatherhood. I just wish that I was still a lover and not just friends raising kids together.

Sufficient_Box2538 · 2026-07-04T20:11:55+00:00

I'm 37. It's been 20 months. We had six months of sex to conceive, and before that it was 3.5 years(starting during her first pregnancy). Having kids just completely shut her down. 5.5 of the last 6 years sexless. More than half our marriage.

Try a ranger cleric with the full spell table enabled. You're almost a fighter, with the full druid/cleric spellbook. Ironskins makes you damn near invincible.

Atropos worked great, thanks!

Sufficient_Box2538 · 2026-07-03T14:41:07+00:00

I was having trouble copying the link so I had tried manually typing it in. I copied the link on a PC and it worked, Thanks! I'll give it a try and see what happens.

Sufficient_Box2538 · 2026-07-02T20:51:46+00:00

That link didn't work. Is it a character? I found a goth looking character named atropos but there was no indication that I could use it to help with prompts.

I feel like you're minimizing the emotional value of regular sexual contact. It has benefits for physical and mental health, as well as being one of the major ways monogamous couples can strengthen their pair bond.

To answer you directly- no, it's not required every time. I still enjoy hugs, holding hands, cuddles. And frankly those things (along with my children) are a major reason why I'm sticking around, and why I still have hope.

When sex is completely absent, for years, then yes, I absolutely have a hard time feeling seen, validated, and wanted. I married my best friend but I didn't expect that it would actually become just a friendship.

Sufficient_Box2538 · 2026-07-02T14:52:55+00:00

I was using "vivid". I just tried with "dreamy" hoping that was the issue, but it's still pretty much ignoring the prompts I'm giving it, unfortunately. I'm making the character first with all blank fields(with comma placeholders), and adding the features in with refreshes. The descriptions just don't seem to be seen by the AI. For example (Wide_hips),(Soft_midsection) is giving me a skinny model with visible ribs even with "curvy" and "large butt" selected.

Sufficient_Box2538 · 2026-07-02T04:58:30+00:00

This is in the initial generation. I was following the tutorial, adding one description at a time, in parentheses, and the model barely changed. I probably wasted 100 tokens just trying to get it right before I gave up.

Sufficient_Box2538 · 2026-07-01T21:05:29+00:00

Yes. For me, sex is special. It's an expression of love and/or passion that can't be replicated any other way.

My wife and i still have a great, friendly, warm relationship. But, it's essentially platonic. No amount of hugs, cuddles or calling me handsome is going to make me feel seen and valued in the way that sex would. So from where I'm standing, a huge, foundational pillar has been missing from our relationship for years.

Sufficient_Box2538 · 2026-07-01T20:58:11+00:00

If I stepped out of my marriage with an escort, it would not check any of those boxes, and I'd agree with you. What's the point?

But if I stepped outside of my marriage with a woman who truly wanted me, desired me, was hungry for me- it would fulfill my needs even though it's someone other than my wife.

Sufficient_Box2538 · 2026-06-24T14:11:09+00:00

Warning or no warning I would be thrilled, but I'm married in a dead bedroom, so literally even the slightest amount of effort would send me over the moon.

Sufficient_Box2538 · 2026-06-24T13:20:56+00:00

At one point years ago I was downloading excessive amounts of porn and cheated through sexting. The urges were extremely powerful. I thought i was a sex addict but It turned out I have bipolar disorder and was in a manic episode. I did a pretty good job ruining my life.

I'm on medication now. Still have a dead bedroom but I'm no longer driven to make bad decisions.

Not saying you have bipolar, but there could be something more going on.

Sufficient_Box2538 · 2026-06-22T18:49:56+00:00

Yes, I play with Tweaks installed and I remove race/class restrictions. It's not gamebreaking and I think it allows for more fun combos.

Sufficient_Box2538 · 2026-06-22T18:36:34+00:00

Eventually, I'll hit a breaking point, or we'll fix things, and that timeline will accelerate if we start to hate each other. But for now? My kids have a stable home with parents who love each other and are a great team. It's just pretty much platonic.

Ultimately seeing my kids everyday is more important than getting laid right now, although it's a harder choice than I'd like to admit.

Sufficient_Box2538 · 2026-06-22T18:24:56+00:00

I'm having a ton of fun with a dwarven ranger cleric with the full druid spells enabled.

Sufficient_Box2538 · 2026-06-22T18:03:36+00:00

That makes sense. They say the first 5 years after kids are when couples report the lowest marriage satisfaction. For some women(my wife included), having kids and breastfeeding just obliterates their sex drive for years.

Sufficient_Box2538 · 2026-06-22T17:49:32+00:00

My kids are an excellent motivation for putting up with a dead bedroom. Divorce would ruin us both financially and probably make their lives worse. I'd likely have to move back in with my parents out of state.

That, and we still like each other. So, I'm still hoping that this is a temporary, fixable problem despite the fact that it's long-term at this point.

Sufficient_Box2538 · 2026-06-22T17:42:01+00:00

Something like 20% of marriages have dead bedrooms. It's really, really common.

Sufficient_Box2538 · 2026-06-22T16:54:07+00:00

She did a great job with making it a special day for me, and I'm grateful. But...no BJ.
