> Anna -
This is just my experience. When I started Geodon, I had a hypomanic response. I couldn't sleep more than a few hours and I had to be moving or doing all the time. My house was clean as a whistle, similar to yours it sounds!Though after a weeks time, that agitation and flight into activity and talking (!), i didn't shut up for 4 days!, diminshed and I just felt and AD effect from Geodon. HOWEVER, by the end of two weeks I had to D/C the med due to tongue movements and reemerging TD symptoms. I was very sad to give up this med. It was the first in a long time that help with depression and distorted thinking. I wasn't on it long enough to see if it made my cycling worse...though I did have one very stable week on it, after I had adjusted to it!
This is probably not much help. Just wanted to relay my experience, and tell you to hang in there. Keep in touch with your pdoc and keep a good record of your moods.
I hope things get better for you...
