Dear Bizi

good job on the "experiment"

the thing is you are not used to this dosage - absorbing as much as you did. once you get used to it, you may experience less sedation.

i don't know if the hunger is related. it seems likely if the geodon was the only thing you did different. but geodon isn't known for making people hungry... i'd say wait and see if it happens again, and too, that could be transient.

zyprexa augments the insulin response and that is how it produces hunger, but i can't find anything to indicate geodon does this. all the same, if you find it does make you hungry i'd suggest you avoid ready carbs and alcohol which will perpetuate the cycle. stick to complex carbs, proteins and fats if you need a snack.

i hear you on the coffee!!!! the pool sounds so good, too!
