In the past various medications caused a huge weight gain, which is very painful to me. Currently, Lithium is causing kidney trouble - I am already down to 450 mg though, and may be able to go off of it completely via increasing Geodon.
My main medications now are Geodon and Ambien and they, knock on wood, cause no side effects at all. I am extremely, unbelievably grateful that there are pharmaceutical solutions.
