Anybody tried the Geodon/Prozac combo? I am taking 40 mg. of Geodon which has really helped in terms of apathy, energy and anhedonia, but am still quite anxious. My stomach it seems, is tied up in knot. Even Clonazepam (generic Klonopin) doesn't help. Buspar had no effect. And sometimes my mood goes way down (sometimes due to pmdd) So I am trying the Geodon/Prozac combo. Originally it would have been Zyprexa and Prozac but I am already 170 pounds at 5 feet tall and I can't handle any additional weight. A while back amitriptyline along with a small dose of Zoloft helped tremendously and I felt more relaxed and in control. Unfortunately the side effects (hair loss-Zoloft)(weight gain amitriptyline) forced me off that combo. Just looking for the experiences of others in the same boat who do better on neuroleptics for depression. It's been a long haul and I am greatful to finally respond to Geodon, but the anxiety I could do without.
