I'm on 60 mg Celexa, 2mg of risperdal and 15 mg adderall. About three weeks ago I tried to switch to geodon for ten days and I had a horrible reaction- extremely anxious, flu, suicidal ideations that weren't there before. Prior to this geodon trial my cocktail worked great- I wanted to switch to geodon because I had gained so much weight on risperdal. I've been completely off the geodon for two weeks and something is not right. I'm obsessive, restless, irritable, depressed, can't concentrate and the a.m. anxiety is horrible. I suspect it's the risperdal that is pooping out. Could this have happened because of the geodon? Will it go away or did I totally screw up my system?

i would bet that the adderall is causing your problems. i've been on adderall for about a month. it worked great (mood, energy lift) for a few days. after that, i've been on a steady decline. my depression and anxiety are horrible right now, even by my standards. i would recommend tapering off the adderall slowly. this takes time and probably won't be easy but from my experience and from what i've read, this drug can turn on you and make things turn ugly. hope this helps.
