Don't DIY: Never add, stop or chg these drugs w/o Dr's help. Even if they say it's OK. Get another Dr. Geodon (ziprasidone) is not directly for anxiety. Your own smarts may have made you worry about messing w/ this. Work w/ your Dr and therapist to handle the anxiety. It's difficult even w/ training - be careful. Best wishes!
