> >Hi, Scott--
> I can really empathize with your suffering, believe me.I have been diagnosed with Bipolar II or Biploar NOS, depending on who has done the diagnosing. Mainly I present with depression with occasional hypomania.
> Although I am in a funk right now (precipitated by Sept. 11th) I had had 2 months where I felt better than I had in years. I attribute this to the addition of Mirapex and ziprasidone (Geodon) to my regime of synthroid, dexedrine, lamotrigine and temazepam. (I had taken moclobemide for 3 1/2 years, and although it had helped, I stopped it because it wasn't potent enough).
> After being on the Geodon for about a month, I started to notice that certain pleasures started coming back to me, like feeling love, or "hearing" music. I am now taking 60 mg. (20 three times a day) but had been up to 100 mg.

Hi Chocoholic,
I was wondering if you know for sure that regaining these emotions was due to the Geodon, or the Mirapex, or maybe the combo?
The reason I ask, is that I had a similar response to Mirapex. I started feeling emotions I have been living without for years. This was a trial I did on my own, but I am considering asking my p-doc to prescibe mirapex, or possibly goedon. I am not bi-polar,just so you know.
Thanks in advance for any info you could provide.

Anthony
