I instantly started feeling an impending doom, a feeling of “I have to get out of here right now!” But I was paralysed and locked in my mind. I was beyond any point of exhaustion I had ever experienced in my life. I could hardly keep my eyes open to the point I was nearly crying. It made me super mad for some reason. I just remember yelling at my boyfriend and that was it. I’ve woken up the next day (headache-less bless) with super dry mouth, still a feeling of tiredness and scattered. I feel like the medication has seriously messed me up | Wouldn’t wish this medication on my worst enemy | F | 17 | 1 days No idea | 10/10/2019 | 1 | Blurry vision, dry mouth, Death like sleep | F | 33 | 30 days 3X day | 4/13/2010 | 1 | Mental Illness | I slept almost all day and felt like taking my life when I was awake and did not know why I was feeling like this. | I will never take this medication again.

Off in spring of 1976. See my entry under Navane. I recommend this even less than Navane. Although I was misdiagnosed, I don't think that was fully responsible for side-effects. Just a nasty drug. | F | 52 | 3 years | 7/11/2005 | 1 | attempt to help with depression | was having migraines at the same time & was being given compazine for that nausea. All of a sudden, I couldn't walk or even coordinate my hands to feed myself. Went to ER & they realized initially that compazine causes these parkinson like symptoms. They stopped the compazine immediately but didn't realize that the thorazine was also causing the parkinson like symptoms which was why the symptoms didn't go away after stopping just the compazine. It took over a month & going to a neurologist for him to realize that the continued parkinson symptoms were being caused by the thorazine even after stopping the compazine. Both meds cause these symptoms & after both were stopped it took about another month for the symptoms to go away. I couldn't coordinate my hands & needed help just to walk. I couldn't even walk myself into the bathroom so had to wait for my husband to get home from work just to go to the bathroom. It took so long for the Dr's to realize the symptom | I was on the combination for about 6+ months before the symptoms just immediately showed up. It didn't even help with the depression & high anxiety level that I was having so it definitely wasn't worth the side effects. | F | 46 | | 2/16/2007 | 1 | Bipolar type 2 | Tardive Dyskinesia-Tongue was frozen. | This had to have been the most terrifying medication I have ever taken. It's a good thing I only found out the symptoms could be permanent after they went away. | F | 23 | 1 days | 3/25/2009 |
