I've been on geodon for about 3 and a half weeks. i think. something like that. started at 40mg and as of 3 days ago i am on 160mg. I'm seeing my dr in 5 days even though i just saw her bc she said i should feel better with the dose increase (i havent improved at all since taking it) and if i dont, she will switch me to something else.
im afraid of being switched to basically any other antipsychotic bc of the weight gain. im not overweight but im very...i dunno about my weight. I think i could easily develop an eating disorder if i begin to gain weight.
ive already been on risperdal and abilify for about a month each time, actually 2 months for risperdal and i did gain like 5lbs from it. they did not help me in any significant way with my thoughts or mood
i just want to hear some reactions to geodon, like how fast it worked, how well it worked, etc. specifically for mood and psychosis. not just mood. my mood has stabilized a bit from it.
there was a demon put inside my head and i can hear its thoughts and feelings and it is not fun. im fighting in my head constantly. it says that the reason my meds dont work is because im a fake and a liar with no mental illness. i need to get rid of this and i dont know how im scared medicine wont help. this "demon" isnt my only problem but just one that is part of my disorder. it is the most troubling though. im so paranoid all the time too and im being monitored . there is more but i cant talk about it online.
