[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 559843, member: 1514"] CB....okay I have a huge question here. You say you have bipolar but you arent on any mood stabilizers! You are taking a boatload of antidepressants and you are taking an antipsychotic but not even one mood stabilizer and from what it looks like you have only tried one mood stabilizer...lamictal. That seems very odd to me. I cannot go near any antidepressants because they cause mania. I would imagine that would cause anxiety too. I also have anxiety and PTSD as part and parcel with the bipolar but also from issues stemming back to my childhood and late teens. Do you think maybe you should ask your doctor to do a medication wash and try starting you on mood stabilizer first off and see where you are and maybe keep the geodon with it? I really worry about having all those AD's lumped together is only going to cause you to have more mania and anxiety and more trouble sleeping. [/QUOTE]
