Yea, I guess you're right. My reactions have all been with the anti epilepic meds. That's why I can use Trileptal as an add on at 300mg for sleep and 150mg once or twice a day, but have side effects when I try to go higher.
The AAPs seem to be pretty good for me. Abilify was great for sleep, but caused serious weight gain. Seroquel was great for sleep, but left me grumpy in the morning. Low dose zyprexa I loved, but my doc didn't want me staying on it long term due to weight gain. So, for now, Geodon it is. I'm splitting my dose now (new thing since this recent manic episode). 80mg at dinner and 40mg with breakfast.
