I have been using Geodon for three and a half years. It has been a very good medication for my mental health symptoms, and for that I am grateful. I do have some side-effect issues, however. I get something akin to restless leg syndrome that is especially bad at night when I am lying down, trying to fall asleep. I have taken Mirapex for this and also Cogentin. Both clear up 90% of my discomfort and the last ten percent is tolerable. I have some facial contortions sometimes, like a feeling that I have to make a strange face to relieve tension in my facial muscles, but that is mostly tolerable also. I do know that withdrawal from Geodon can be extremely uncomfortable so don't stop suddenly. Never let yourself run out of medicine.

Geodon has taken away SOME of the delusions/paranoia. Yet, it has made me angry and mean, and has caused me to gain weight. Recommend it for a short period of time- NOT longterm.
