"i started geodon with celexa nine years ago.  it worked amazing for the first couple of years. but then i started getting physical side effects.  i began to have tics on my face and i gained a total of 60 pounds on this med.  my vision became poor and i needed glasses. i became numb to my feelings.  i started to wake up at night half asleep, eating and doing really weird things.  i tapered off over a few months because stopping cold turkey causes me extreme mental withdrawal.  i was off it a year and couldn&#039;t handle the depression, anxiety and mood swings anymore.  i recently went back on a week ago and already my vision is blurry, i&#039;m sleep walking and gained two pounds. i does wonders for me mentally but i can&#039;t handle the side effects."
