Ok - after 3 days of just not sleeping, I was desperate last night. I took my 1mg klonopin and 80mg Geodon and slept great! Didn't even hear my husband's alarm go off. I feel so much better today.
I may have to take 20mg of Geodon and more klonopin during the day to stay stable.
I guess I need to talk to my doc about possibly switching over to Abilify, but doc really like me on Geodon (wants me to keep my weight stable or even lose some more weight!)
Geodon works, I just hate that I have to stay on top of dosing it! Why can't it just last longer and then my mood won't go off the rails?!
Of course, I also worry about the long term side effects of Geodon also.
I hate this whole BP thing. But, I'm not depressed and I am well rested and my attitude is much better today than it has been in days (guess that's what happens when you take your meds).
I just hate all the side effects of these meds.
I just wonder if Seroquel at night and Abilify during the day would be better than Geodon 24 hours a day?
