In reply to Is Geodon better than Seroquel or Abilify?HELP!?!, posted by CEK on July 5, 2006, at 18:44:14
> I've been on Seroquel and Abilify in the past and had bad side effects. Akastasia and feeling like a zombie and wanting to sleep all day were the worst side effects not to mention back pain also. I am suppose to start taking 120mg of Geodon tonight. I've never tried it before and am afraid of it. I don't want to go through what I already went through with the other APs. Is Geodon better than the other two and is there reason to believe that I wouldn't react the same way to this med? I have been diagnosed as bipolar 2 with rapid cycling with GAD. My hypomania has not been seen since I've stopped taking ADs. The worst of my symptoms is this horrible, deabilitating depression. Can Geodon help me?
Doc gsve me Serequel yesterday and it knocked me out in one hour. I slept for 14 hours. Is the stuff shot from helicopters and used to capture wild animals in the outback? This is the second time doc has done this to me. The first time was with Zyprexa. I need to get "up" not "down."So I woke this morning wondering the same question you asked. I am calling her today to ask.
Anyone?
