I take 60mg of Geodon and it helps with my irritability, but not entirely. I have tried going up to 80mg, but get eye twitches and jerks, plus trouble waking up in the morning.
So back to 60mg of Geodon.
My consistent problem has been depression that has caused irritability and just plain hatefulness towards others.
I recently tried Pristiq again and couldn't tolerate the unbelievable stomach pains, cramps and gas. After only a week I had to stop. I think I had the same problems a few years back with the generic Effexor. Sort of IBS like symptoms from the med.
I don't see my doc for another week.
Any thoughts on what a good antidepressant add-on?
Geodon is not totally addressing my sadness and irritability.
Also - doc thinks I am ADD and gave me Adderall - but I really think that causes mood instability.
