Hi all. I am really in need of any help, insight, experiences anyone has regarding Anxiety and/or Insomnia due to taking Prozac and/or Geodon. Your help would be so appreciated as I am having a rough time right now and I believe it to be caused by either one or both of these meds. And also due to the fact that I'm Bipolar and not on a "TRUE" Mood Stabilizer (but will be.)
Also I'm wondering if anyone experienced or has knowledge of saying things that came out of no where? Like calling someone a name even though you didn't have a CLUE as to why you did so? That's not at all like me and it's only started since I began taking Prozac and Geodon about 2 weeks ago.
Here are the Dosages of the Medications I am on:
- Geodon: 40mg (20mg/2x day)
- Seroquel: 100mg (100mg/1x day, at bedtime)
- Prozac: 10 mg (10mg/1x day)
- Xanax XR: 4mg (1mg/4x day)
- Lunesta: 3mg (3mg/1x day, at bedtime)
- Yaz (BCP): 1 Tablet (1 Tablet at bedtime)Starting tomorrow night (at my insistance) since I've been an anxious/manic/insomniatic mess, My Psychiatrist is putting me on Depakote ER: 500mg (500mg/1x day, at bedtime)
To help you understand why I'm taking all these meds, it's because I have the Following Disorders:- Bipolar I, Mixed with Ultra Rapid Cycling
- Borderline Personality Disorder
- Panic Disorder with Mild Agoraphobia
- Generalized Anxiety Disorder
- Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
- Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder
- Antisocial Personality Disorder
- Dependant Personality Disorder
- Histrionic Personality Disorder
- Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorder (in addition to the OCD - there is a difference)
I would be most grateful if some of you out there would please find the time to tell me anything they can about my medications. Thanks so much. Take good care! :)
Hugs,
CA 2 NJ
