In reply to Concerta, Abilify or Geodon?, posted by tensor on November 3, 2011, at 5:52:19

Hi MattiasI would try Abilify first. It has antidepressant and anxiolytic propterties. People often describe an increase in motivation and mental energy when taking Abilify. A friend of mine uses it for depression and anxiety. Whenever she tries to stop taking it, severe anxiety reappears. I think she is taking 5 mg.
Geodon is inconsistent in how it affects people. For some, it hits the target for depression. However, it can also produce anxiety and insomnia.
Good luck.
