BPII. The Geodon really takes care of the depression. I still have some residual mood issues, such as severe anxiety which can lead to anger.
I have found Adderall better for me than coffee (even though I love caffeine).
I'm not sure what would really help with the anxiety which leads to anger and sometimes outbursts. Maybe that's mania? Maybe it's just out of control anxiety?
I didn't have the anxiety and anger on Depakote, but the severe cystitis was a deal breaker. Topamax caused the same thing. Plus, Depakote added weight and acne - yuk.
I'm not sure at this point what could be added to Geodon to mellow my mood.
