    Geodon changed my life in less than 48 hours. It’s amazing what can be done with the correct diagnosis. Be aware that lots of mental health meds cause weight gain… I’ve been struggling the last six months especially trying to lose and it refuses to come off. My therapist says isn’t my stability worth more than my weight? And she’s right. Ugh.

      I was extremely hesitant to try lithium in the first place because it was labelled as an antipsychotic. “I’m not psychotic!” yes. yes I was. I was also hesitant because of the whole “kidney toxicity” and “non-insulin diabetes” and “liver toxicity,” but yeah eventually I had to agree with your doc’s line of reasoning too.
