I had a bad experience woth Geodon, too.
After taking it for about a week, I had severe panic attacks, anything and everything would trigger a crying fit, I had severe akathesia (restlessness), I felt sucidal and hostile. I thought it may have been due to other meds I was on, so I would up the dosage on the Geodon while tapering with the other meds. Whoops.
I've been off of it for almost two months and I'm still dealing with these issues, most noteably the akathesia.
I think this drug is crap. Sure other people have success and that is great for them. Personally, I wouldn't recommend this drug at all unless they have gone through every AP ever created first.
Just know you're not alone in this. Best of luck.
