If you've been through that laundry list, which I'm sorry you have -- I've been through a lot of medications, actually ECT at least here has had some success for treatment resistant conditions, which my pdoc has mentioned in passing. The whole thought of it horrifies me but its very controlled today.
One also has to evaluate and look back as to how long one "stuck out" a medicine trial. 3 days? 1 week? A month? Often medicine is pitched in the trash after days due to I admit unpleasant side effects. Transmitters take a while to adjust to medications, as opposed to ECT which is fairly immediate, and some antipsychotics. Your experience with Geodon was probably akathisia EPS. Its somewhat potent in that direction.
