And will they pass over time?

Some people get these from partial dopamine agonists, Abilify, Vraylar and Rexulti. We all have different genetics.

One day is not enough time.
You should at least be on the med for a couple of days to see how it affects you, unless your having serious side effects.
Contact your doctor.

You should try reducing dosage of your medicines if they are giving you too much side effects

If you really can’t tolerate your med then I would contact your doctor immediately.
They may put you on a different med.

Like I said before I couldn’t tolerate even 1.5 mg of Vraylar.

Like you I found it to be extremely activating.

I switched back to Risperdal

Vraylar, abilify etc like aps are usually give at the starting stages for mild positive symptoms. Over time it loss its efficiency and require more strong aps to manage positive symptoms.
