darkdreams Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 I've been on Geodon for around 2 months. (80mgs).The dose was increased to 120mgs a week ago. I have noticed that my short term memory has become really bad and 3 to 4 hours after taking 60mgs I absolutely need to lie down and sleep or I will just drop right to the floor where ever I happen to be at that moment. I nearly crashed the car a few times........Does anyone else experience these side-effects? They are really quite frightening.....I'm also on 300mgs of Wellbutrin..........both are meds for major depression. I would appreciate any information ......anything at all would be helpful. Thanks..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Min Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 Geodon will knock you out if you're highly sensitive to it. I myself have trouble taking it twice a day so I just take both my pills at night. no short term memory loss I don't think.....more long term.

Loon-A-TiK Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 I am very open about hating Geodon. I couldn't remember anything, slept until kingdom come, and was very aggressive when I WAS awake. Terrible, terrible substance for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
