Hi.Yes. Getting a rash is the most common side effect that leads to the discontinuation of Geodon. I'm not sure how this would associate with a withdrawal syndrome, but I would say that you are definitely not a freak! There is no mention of the rash being dangerous.
I have also heard of a rash developing upon the discontinuation of Lamictal. I don't know the potential risks of allowing it to continue.
