"i&#039;m 28 with bipolar 1 disorder with psychotic features, and i switched from abilify to geodon a couple months ago. i immediately loved it. i had more productive energy than i&#039;d had in years, but nothing verging on mania, anxiety, or restlessness. it helped both with psychotic symptoms completely, and even bipolar depression - always the hardest to treat. i was happy, energetic, and more focused, and experienced no sedation. unfortunately i have a history of minor heart problems--related to past meds and over-exercise in the past--and they were triggered. tachycardia and it&#039;s symptoms, which all stopped as soon as i stopped geodon. if i didn&#039;t have pre-existing heart problems, i would have loved to stay on it."
