I wanted to ask I have ptsd and have anxiety due to it. I am not bipolar nor have I ever had any issues close to what this video talks about. My doctor gives me 20mg twice a day for the "anxiety attacks" and I wanted to see if you'd heard of this.

I’ve been on this for two days. Except the brand name I think is geodon. This makes me soooooo sleepy. And dizzy. I have to lie down when I’m on it cuz golly it makes me so sleepy and dizzy and groggy 🥴

That's interesting. I used to be on it but didn't notice any drowsiness at the time.

@@DrugTalk I am never taking this again. I ended up feeling very restless and shaky. I could not sleep. I have had a crazy week. And then I threw up the medication shortly after taking it cuz I didn’t want it in my system. My body felt like it was tingling all over. I felt like I was having a seizure but I wasn’t. I felt like I was having nervous system problems. It gave me a panic attack. I am okay now. But yeah this did not do me any good at the end. I was on 40 mg 💀💀💀💀

Took this years ago. Pretty sure my initial dosing was too high. The ground appeared to be different levels and I went to WalMart with my pants inside out. Trying to find a med that doesn’t cause high lipids and hyperglycemia bc I already have that. I thought geodon was one of those. And I thought weight loss was side effect of this one. Thank you for info. Looking like a lost cause finding treatment.

@@Absolutely_Jennifer The voices are still there but now I don't focus on them like I use to. I just igrone them and realize that there in my head noone is actually saying anything to me. It's impossible to be telepathic so I guess the pills worked. Some days are better then others. I gained 30 pounds from eating junk foods.

I can look further into this during the work week but typically sexual dysfunction is reversible when the medication is stopped. I used 40mg twice daily and haven't had any problems.
