Geodon is supposedly my new mood stabilizer. Which confuses me because I just looked it up on this site (I've looked it up on drugs.com before) and it's only supposed to be a short-term treatment for mania. He is taking me off the Lithium and plans for Geodon to be my main drug, along with Trileptal. I guess the real questions would be how much relief should I expect. Show I expect to be feeling much better? I'm starting to wonder why I am even bothering with the medication if its not fixing me. (Don't worry, I wouldn't discontinue a medication without notifying a doctor first) I just feel like it's no use if this is the only relief I am to get. I'm already close to the highest amount for Geodon. He told me that insurance companies wouldn't cover the next step above where I am at.

I'm starting to question if he even knows what he is doing or if he is just throwing ideas against a wall to see was sticks.
