Maybe four years ago I started Ziprasidone/Geodon, and I developed severe acute dystonia within a week. It started with briefly being unable to open my eyes, and progressed to being unable to walk and my spine trying to snap itself in two. My psychiatrist stopped the Ziprasidone, added Cogentin, and everything was good in like a week or two. 

We never talked about the Ziprasidone again but I’m getting to the point where I’m running out of medication options. I’m gonna ask my psych when him when I see next week but has anyone here had a bad reaction like that to an AP and then been fine when they tried it a second time later? My body seems to react to some meds different now than when I was younger, but I don’t know if that’s just me or not
