Severe agitation and psychosis are the worst. My life is in serious danger at those times and the feeling is beyond unbearable. Unfortunately, my most common episode is mixed so I experienced agitation frequently until I was put on Geodon 16 months ago. Thankfully, it stopped the mood episodes and thus psychosis. Suffered for decades before finding the right med though. I still have horrible flashbacks from times when I was severely unwell.
