Update: Looks like it's Geodon

Posted by JerryPharmStudent on April 25, 2007, at 6:52:50

Saw my pdoc on Monday and he wanted to put me on Geondon instead of Abilify. He apparently has had much more success with it in treating difficult cases. He started me out on 80mg for 3 days - then I up it to 160mg. So far no real side effects I can feel. The first day I took it it knocked me out ofr 8 hours. Now it seems to be keeping me awake. Maybe it's just me and not the Geodon.

He says it hits many more receptors/sub receptors than Abilify. However, if I cannot tolerate this he'd most likely try me on Abilify. Luckily Geodon is covvered by PPA so I don't have to pay for it.

I've been talking with my therapist a lot about my family and how they are in complete denial of my depression. It makes me so angry and sad at the same time. And lonely.

I wish I had people to talk to who understood.

thanks
Jerry
