The higher dose of Trileptal has put out the steroid fire, thank goodness!
Here's the problem, a higher dose of Geodon 80-120mg is great for stability & depression, but it keeps me awake and keeps me from falling asleep - even with melatonin (6mg).
A lower dose of Geodon 40-60mg makes me sleep like a log, which is awesome, but causes hypomania.
In the past, an old pdoc gave me Seroquel to sleep! Don't like taking 2 AAPs.
The first thing a pdoc said to me 15 years ago was how very, very important sleep is to mood disorders.
So what do I do?
