Upping Geodon / No AD?

Posted by SheilaC on January 1, 2011, at 18:46:41

I have tried and tried so many antidepressants and they all seem to give me terrible side effects.
I have been stable so far on 60mg of Geodon (but my doc tells me we can go way up on that if we need to).
The reason I recently tried Pristiq was due to the continued irritability I have.
I also take a small dose of Adderall for my ADHD and it helps a little with my mood - but can make me edgy.
I am wondering if going up to 80mg of Geodon would help address the irritability? My guess is that it would.
Right now I take Geodon in the evening and sleep pretty good. Can I take all 80mg at night or do I HAVE to split the dose? It makes me sleepy during the day.
What does Geodon mainly do anyway? Does it have any antidepressant effects?
