[QUOTE="totoro, post: 96306, member: 3155"] Sorry if my post is garbled... 4 days of little or no sleep!!! Well because I had read about all of the horrible side affects of Geodon... it says most don't start experience until after 24-48 hours.. which had me questioning her mood. She has been amping up all week, seeing things prior to the medication adjustment. So that is why we don't know what is going on... She actually got 60mg of Geodon yesterday. I gave her some last night when she started acting weird, I had been reading about withdrawel... She finally fell asleep around 6ish... I don't know if she is just manic??? having an actual manic episode? But I also feel it is medication related... I am going to let her continue to wean off of the Geodon, we had decreased the Neurontin from 200mg to 100mg over 2 weeks... not much lower I can go. At this point I am going to wean her off regardless if psychiatrist says just stop it... Well if all goes well hopefully she will be off of Geodon in a couple of weeks and and only on Lamictal and Prazosin... If she does horribly we can add back on Abilify, at least we know that works... What do you do when your child needs and AP but they cause negative side affects? I guese we can add Cogentin. Thank you so much everyone... it means alot to read you words. I am going to try and get a few minutes sleep!!! [/QUOTE]
