Comment:
This has improved my mood tremendously. I am a lot less irratible and have been able to maintain my calm almost without effort. To add to this, I have been on Geodon for less than a week. I have been through many different therapies for my condition and this almost immediate effect has given me some hope of a more normal life. All this and I am on VNS Therapy as well.
