I am badly depressed. Geodon is wreaking havoc on me. I desperately need to see a psychiatrist and it feels like I can’t even wait a week. I need to get on a properly working antidepressant right away and need to start tapering off geodon. I am suffering.

u talk about suffering yet u are one of the most high functioning people on here. Maybe because you don’t have the textbook schizophrenia, just psychotic depression or whatever. When do u see ur pdoc? Maybe u could schedule a drop in, just talk for 15 minutes or less. Some of them do that.
I’m sorry @Anna
You hang in there, OK?

Is there any possibility of going to emergency? 
i just took a half hour meditation and breathing break
I do have psychotic depression. I can try and see. It’s so hard to get an appointment with a psychiatrist.

I can’t, I wish, I just got a new job.
At any othe time I’d be happy to have this job but the timing for it was just really poor, if I could go back in time I’d have told myself not to get a job until after I was settled in at home. I should’ve known I’d have an episode after all the stress.

Suffering is suffering no matter the level of functioning. Someone with schizophrenia May feel they are in need of less help in comparison to someone with depression. Someone with anxiety might be able to get on disability while someone like me with bp cannot.
