About a minute after it was sprayed in my mouth, I started to get nauseous and lightheaded. Then I got dizzy and started sweating. I couldn't focus my eyes and I had trouble taking deep breaths. It took about 15 minutes for the worst to subside. It was well over an hour before I became completely lucid. And for the rest of the day I was very nauseous and had a migraine-like headache (like a bad hangover).

I started taking geodon on yesterday. I was cooking dinner and I suddenly became very dizzy and started to stagger like a drunk. My doctor prescribed me 160mg per day. I'm currently looking for work, and I receive a call from a employer, and I could not collect my thoughts to have a decent conversation with her. I was truly out of focus. I've been sleeping all day. I feel terrible, like a person with a bad hangover. My head is woozy and I have no appetite. Please discontinue this medication... Thanks.

I have been weaning off for about a month now. I was on 75mg a day for about two years. I have learned you can pull apart your capsules and lower your dose that way. I think I have about two more doses. I am going through withdrawals right now, but It is not as intense as when I tried cold turkey. Mostly I feel like I have a really bad hangover. Brain zaps, shakes, weakness. I think it is bull @#%$ that doctors can hand this stuff out like candy without letting people know what they are in for. I am grateful because it did help through a time I needed it, but this is horrible. To all of you going through this, hang in there. There has to be a light at the end of the tunnel.
