Input on Geodon sleepiness + dosing please...

Posted by Sheilac on September 15, 2013, at 16:31:32

Geodon at night makes me sleep great, but hypomanic the next day. If I only take it at night, 1 cup of coffee in the morning will make me almost manic.

I've heard dosing it 2x a day would help. So I took 20mg this morning, and while it did keep me stable, and stopped the irritability (yea!) I consumed enough caffeine for everyone on this board! It was all I could do to stay awake today!

If I stick it out, will the daytime sleepiness wear off? Would a higher dose like 40mg in the morning be better?
Or would just taking it all at night - maybe a higher dose like 60mg or 80mg NOT cause the daytime hypomania?

Weird med. if I take it at night I need stabilizer during day.
If I take it 2x a day, I need very strong stimulants to stay awake during day.
