I have been on geodon 20 mg 1x daily for over a month now. It has helped my manic outburst (I am labeled with borderline personality disorder). The negative side effects for me are...I'm seeing things, I have increased anxiety (to the point where my husband must sit in the bathroom while I shower because I feel like I'm being watched), I have increased paranoia (I believe my phones to be tapped, which I have never even considered in the past), and I now sense the presences of people all around me....watching my every move..sort of feels like I tapped into a spiritual state of mind. I know I sound like a skitzo, but this medication created all these symptoms. I feel less depressed but more psychotic. I am seeing a psychiatrist next month and getting off these awful pills.
I am taking 120 mgs a day of geodon. I hate it and love it at the same time. I have severe withdrawal if i dont take the dose at the exact same time! I cant sleep and if i do its for 20 hours at a time . I am also taking seroquel and the combination is the worst if you ask me. I heard that Geodon is the new Lithium? Any one else hear that?
