I have MPD and I don't think medication has helped tremendously besides smoothing out the edges so to speak. I am on the max dosage for Zoloft, but I've tried Zyprexa, Seroquel and Risperdal and none of them helped at all (if you are asking about anti psychotics)

I probably would collapse without Zoloft. The only medication I find that helps immediately is ocassional Valium for relaxing and getting sleep.
I'm in Europe so I don't know about Geodon, but when you say horrible experience, what happened?

One important thing is that diss. disorders aren't treated with medications, more commonly the goal is to dissect the individual difficulties for each patient and address those with medication. I personally have a lot of trouble with severe depression and anger and Zoloft has helped a lot with that. I'm like Zen Lady now..(haha) But for those who are wanting meds to escape hearing voices, there is no medication that helps with that. Zyprexa helps with psychotic episodes in my experience (hallucinations and paranoia). I am very reluctant to take it because it makes me so druggy and flatline.
