Thanks everyone for your responses. I do take Geodon at night only. My experience last night was I took it, along with my Lithium and Zyprexa (which I'm titrating off of) at 9pm. I was still awake at 10:45 or 11. I was staring up at the ceiling and feeling like I could do an all-nighter. Sometime after that I conked out. The cat woke me up around 4:30. Again, I felt wide awake, however, my legs and arms felt stuck to the bed and leaden. I walked it off. Forced myself back to sleep because I don't want to get in trouble for being manic. Woke up to my alarm at 8.
I think I like Geodon. I don't wake up feeling groggy or tired. And I drank wine with my dinner last night. Bad, I know, but I'd been off of alcohol for 28 days. Just missed the taste.
