I started Geodon almost two weeks ago. And I am already stopping. My doctor wanted me to take 40mg the first night, 80mg the second, and 120 the third. I took the 40mg the first night, was passed out cold in exactly two hours (and i didn't want to be). The next day I barely made it out of bed, and missed to classes. Then I fell asleep during my last one, woke up with an extreme stomach pain, ran out, and fainted in the hallway. That night I took 80mg. I didn't move from two afters I took it until 5pm the next day. I was completely useless. And felt horrible when I would try to wake up. It was as though my body was asleep but my mind was trying so hard to wake up but failing. I called the doc and went back down to 40 for the next week. Same effects of immediate sleep exactly 2 hours after taking. Then immobile until at least 1pm, but closer to 3-5 pm. Any time I was awake I was yelling, I was furious! At everyone, everything. The next week he made me move up to 80mg. I felt as though someone had knocked me out. I have never been on a drug that affected me in this way. It made me completely unable to function, as well as it seemed to increase my anxiety threefold, and other sensations that had never existed appeared. I decided I would not put my body, mind, or friends through this any more. Last night was my first night without it. It is now 2:30pm the next day, and I have yet to fall asleep. I spent the whole night wide awake sweating like crazy in what my boyfriend described as an icebox. I feel so uncomfortable and I just want to scream. But I would rather want to scream that be someone that couldn't even move. And hopefully the withdrawl will pass. We'll see. I don't understand why this drug is on the market - it seems as though every person that takes it hates it. or at least has extreme side effects
