I tried only 20mg of Geodon last night along with .5mg of Klonopin. After about 2 1/2 hours I fell asleep.
The Geodon doesn't bother my bladder. I don't have any pain with the Geodon.
I'm just wondering if maybe I need a higher dose, like at least 40mg at night.
I haven't liked the tiredness I get from the Geodon during the day (only 20mg in the am).Possibly I should just take 40mg at night and that would help me sleep. I realize in time I may need to go up higher.
I am not psychotic, just bipolar. Without a mood stabilizer I tend to have fits of rage.
Even though I had teeth & gum problems with Lamictal, it gave me fits of rage (possibly serotonin kickin in?). I tend to lose control of my anger with serotonin.
