I might have had 2 mixed episodes (this would be the 3rd) in 17 years. I have a lot to do today that must be done by tomorrow. Any advice on getting out of this miserable ball of c**p? I don't have time for this. On top of that it doesn't feel that great.

If I knew how to not have mixed episodes I would be rich!

Gah! I wish I did have advice for you! Mixed episodes suck!
I don't have any advice for how to end it, but you might try Frankincense oil in a nice hot bath to get you calmed enough to get through it so you can focus on what you need to do. That's all I got. Good luck, honey!

Geodon pulled me out of a mixed episode in a couple of days.

I have no good answers but wanted to give you ((((hugs)))
I've been kind of mixed myself the last couple weeks. Think I *might* finally be just landing in mild depression. Hope it is short-lived for you. |

Mini coma.
There's a reason why Pdocs drug the bejeezuz out of us when we get hospitalized for mania or mixed... Apparently there's a French study that shows knocking us the eff out helps reset the brain. I've induced my own "comas" (with a pdoc's blessing) and even if they don't fix me, I do feel more centered / functional after. Disclaimer: I'm not advocating self medication, best speak to your doctor. |

Congratulations! Do not forget to eat as Geodon is only absorbed in full if you eat complete meals.
