> Hi Scott,
> Thanks for the reply. Since I am on 40mg bid, shouldn't my stimulant effects go away? They did for a few days, but last night was rough. Almost seems like if I wait too long before my next dose, then the agitation/stimulation starts to surface and it's difficult to calm it down.Yes, Geodon can be stimulating and sometimes produce brain-fog. Ultimately, Geodon might not be the right drug for you. It is somewhat unpredictable. It binds to myriad receptors. I believe that dosages above 80mg are counterproductive when treating depression. Bipolar mania would probably call for higher dosages. I know one person who crossed over from Geodon to Abilify with remarkable results.
