I have been taking Geodon for 3 weeks now. two capsals of 40mgs every night (80mgs altogether). I am taking it to control hallusinations that is trigered and attatched with me also being BioPolar 1. It used to make me extremly tired, restless, and I would fall dead asleep within 2 hours of taking it. Now I have noticed that it makes me stay awake longer to the point where my body is dead tired but my mind is still runing at 100 miles an hour. Sweating a lot. Last night I spent the night at my friends house and ended up going to the hospital. I thought I was going to choke on my tounge. Literilly I could not put it back in my mouth with the feeling comming back. I was put in minor care unit. I was expirencing masive full body tremours. I was shaking so bad I would make myself nausous. The docotor gave me a shot of some injection and it knocked me out. I am now expirencing chalk mouth, but I am no longer feeling as if I will shallow my tounge. This is a word of advice to any of those who have been expirencing these side effects, the docotor told me to take Benydril and it really works. Try it. I am no longer on Geodon.

I was on Geodon for bipolar in addition to lithium and depakote. I had to stop the Geodon after 2 months because I had intense shaking. I also could not stop fidgeting/restless movements. My first night without Geodon I have a massive headache and nausea/chills/sweats.
