bipolar disorde
"I am a 48 year-old woman with bi-polar I disorder.  A year ago last fall I was severely depressed. In the hospital they put me on 20 mg. Geodon for depression and 10 mg. trazedone for sleep.  I was already on 1000 mg Tegretol.  At first this combo was a lifesaver and I felt the best I have felt in years - even became slightly hypomanic and over-the-moon happy.  Then 4 months in my mood swung to a deep suicidal depression so I went back in the hospital for 2 weeks and they upped the Geodon to 40 mg then 80 mg and the anxiety and insomnia became so bad they gave me the max they could with sleep meds and I left the hospital worse than ever.  Anxiety so bad I had to take clonazepam to counteract.  Would not take again."
