Has anyone else experienced this? My emotions have been going crazy lately. I switched from zyprexa to Geodon two weeks ago and I've been on an emotional roller coaster ride and haven't been getting enough sleep. At first I started taking two 20mg and now I am increasing to four tablets. On zyprexa I was only taking 7mg but was unmotivated and I was afraid of increasing it due to weight gain (in two years I've gained and lost and gained again forty pounds). I am taking the geodon because it does not cause weight gain. I've also noticed I am more motivated than I was before, but also very emotional. I am not sure if I should aim for the month and a half it takes to really kick in or if I should go back to the zyprexa, I am not liking the side effects I'm having but wondering if it will go away once it really kicks in and we find the right dose.
