Im been taking preworkouts for while on meds, i think causing my anxiety to increase and paranoia from all the stimulant but i need the energy boost.
Stimulants increase the possibility of psychotic events. Also increases anxiety and likelihood of panic attacks.

I can’t do cardio on Geodon. Used to run 3 to 10 miles everyday. As soon as I started taking Geodon I couldn’t run anymore. But I stayed skinny on it. It is weight neutral.
I added Latuda and put on 60 pounds I can’t lose now. Used to weigh 170 on just Geodon but with Latuda I am at 230. I don’t eat much. I don’t eat breakfast at all.
Are you lifting weights or are you able to do cardio with it? I find my heart rate goes way too high now if I try to run. I just can’t do it.
Do you Reddit? r/psychiatry
I hate cardio i cant do it, i do strength training, im on low calorie diet. Been losing since. I think my liver shot to hell from supplements im taking.
Ha! That’s funny. I hate weights. All I do is cardio.
In fact, if I HAD to strength train I wouldn’t go to the gym
Okay. I just was curious and had to ask. I used to love running. I just can’t do it anymore. I wonder if it’s all antipsychotics or just Geodon.
I had plenty of energy on geodon. I also have plenty of energy on abilify. Risperdone ~ not so much
