Geodon works as a mood stabliser too, Im on it an AD and stimulants without a specific MS and have been stable for nearly 3 years.
It took a few weeks for me to get the full effect of the medication but I am also on a higher dose (80mg). I was in the middle of an awful mixed episode when started on it and I am so very glad I found this medication. I hope that it works the same for you.
What kind of coping stratagies are you using to help at the moment?
