Katrina,
Sleep is no problem for me anymore and my "delay phase cycle" is even back in line. For the longest time, I was totally awake until well after midnight and had to force myself to sleep, then was practically comatose in the morning until after 10am. Now, I go to sleep at maybe 10:30, like normal folk, and wake up prior to 7:00. This is very different for me and due much to the lessening in severity of my Bipolar cycles, with my current meds.
On the whole, I would say that Geodon is more GOOD for sleep than bad.
Geodon is different than Zyprexa but just as effective for me in the area of eliminating ruminating thought patterns. No weight gain, too, is a HUGE plus as far as I am concerned. There is almost nothing as depressing as gaining 20 lbs. Ah, vanity, vanity...
