Geodon doesn't work for a lot of people, and for many causes them to become manic. That's what my pdoc told me...he couldn't believe mine was working for me.

I've had really good luck with Lamictal and Abilify.

I'm also on lamictol. It's working for me. A lot of people have tried seroquil sp? But that didn't work for me.

Until 2 days ago, I would have sworn by Lithium.
I was also being kept in check by Invega, but came off that because it made me feel terrible - like a robot.
