Yes, I remember now, trying 2mg of Abilify back in 2005-2006 I think and I did gain weight. Just awful.
It was a great drug for my sex life, but I can't eat like crazy!
I would hope the 900mg of Trileptal would help with any mania caused by Geodon.
Also, this neuro doc doesn't like to Rx benzos, so I at least asked if I could get a script for Buspar, which did help with my depression and anxiety.
Abilify, ironically enough, gave me akathesia, which only Klonopin took care of!
Right now, until I see my regular pdoc, I'm sticking with my Geodon, Trileptal and Klonopin.
Would Buspar cause mania? It seems like when I took it before it took about 3 weeks to work and then it made me sleepy in the afternoon. Better sleepy than raging. Bonus: Buspar helps my depression & curbs my appetite.
