I take 20mgs of Geodon and unbelievable sleepiness hit me about two months after taking it. It is not a genuine sleepiness, because I don't feel the need to sleep during the day. It is just a false sense of sleepiness. I would consider that or the Seroquel to be the main culprits. My mood is actually starting to suffer I think because of this sleepiness 24/7. I don't feel like getting out and my mood is just generally not bright. I am going to try to get my doc to prescribe Provigil for me during my next visit or get him to think about other alternatives. I think possibly that Abilify might be a good option also for you and even me, because I need an antipsychotic. I think it generally doesn't carry the somnolence like most other atypicals.
Good Luck!
