I complained to my doc today AGAIN about being sleepy during the day and having to take naps. He was not happy with me.
He has me taking 1mg Klonopin and 50mg Seroquel at night and then 40mg Geodon and 10mg Adderall in the morning.
He also wanted me to take Klonopin .5mg 2x during the day.
I told him I wasn't taking the .5mg Klonopin due to being very sleepy from the Geodon. I also told him I upped my Adderall to 20mg to see if that would help with energy, motivation, etc.
He was mad at me! He told me to go back to 10mg Adderall and to cut down to 20mg of Geodon in the morning. He said it was ok to cut out the .5mg Klonopin 2x during the day, but to stick with the 1mg Klonopin and 50mg Seroquel at night.
He said he doubted very seriously that the Geodon was making me tired.
I'm not sure what to think about today's visit. I will try it his way for the next couple of weeks. But I thought a higher dose of Geodon would help with energy. I thought the lower doses of Geodon make you sleepy.
He would also dump me if he knew I still drank my 1 cup of coffee in the morning.
I'm just not sure that 20mg of Geodon will do anything.
