Dr Graves would have since I never ever lost any medications in 13+ years. So only 40mg and I’m spacing out every 3 or 4 days. This has a bit longer half life than most meds.

It’s always something ! Just hope withdrawals arent hellish.

Today is the one year anniversary of us bringing Gus into our home. He’s just a joy !

I don't really want to scare you on this, but Geodon withdrawals were the worst I ever experienced going off any medication. Ever. And that was even weaning off very slowly. I do hope your pill bottle shows up somewhere. If not, and you experience any withdrawals, I'd try to get a replacement. Or try anyway. And not just for withdrawals, but also risk of mood lability
