If I had to apologize for all the things I've forgotten, I wouldn't have much time to do anything else! I'd never fault anyone for trouble with their memory.
I'm not taking Geodon yet, but I've been waiting ever since it came on the market and my impatience is growing. My pdoc says a lot of his patients have had trouble tolerating Geodon and he wants to get the dosing fine-tuned before he puts me on it. One of the things he's mentioned is that people have trouble sleeping, so your problem with that sounds familiar. Mood swings are another symptom he's been working on resolving for his bipolar patients. Until then, I'm stuck with Zyprexa. I hate being fat, but sleeping is no problem. I'm curious to know how else you think Geodon compares with Zyprexa.
