I'm on a minuscule dose of Geodon, which has helped pull everything else together for me. Been in a great mood since starting it.....I got a little overamped for a couple of weeks right after starting, but things smoothed out for quite a while. Probably time to titrate up.
I must say that it doesn't do a damned thing for anxiety, at least not the tiny dose I'm taking. I had to go on Klonopin for that last week......the on-call prescribed it and it's been a godsend. This has been the best week of sleep in years! Not looking forward to discussing it w/ pdoc this Friday, though; I'm mortified about the meltdown, and wish we didn't have to talk about it. But I know it's necessary.
