I take Geodon as my mood stabilizer and Lexapro as my AD. I can't function without an AD. My pdoc just doubled my geodon and I am starting to feel better thank goodness. I have been stuck in a complete 'down cycle" for so long now. I do not even get out of bed each day, let alone shower. I just couldn't think what it would be like without the AD though. I am new on here and I think this alone is helping me some. PsychCentral seems like a great forum so far.
