Bipolar Disorde
"After my first major breakdown in which I was diagnosedd, I spent a year trying different medicines. I felt like a new (or like my old) self within a couple days, on this miracle drug. My dosages have varied depending on the other medicines (antidepressants and ADD medicines) I&#039;m on. The only major side effect I&#039;ve had that never went away (been on it for 7 years) was the sedation in the morn ing (I took my whole dose in evening). Now I take 20mgs 3x/day and 40mgs at bedtime, then 20mgs when required for anxiety. Right now I also take Wellbutrin XL and I&#039;m titrating up on Abilify due to breakthrough depression. Geodon helps both mania and depression and I found it to be very weight neutral."
