Hi Willow,
It is good to hear that Zyprexa has some effect on depression, too.
I will see what I can do about getting her to try it, but it will be difficult to get her to overcome her suspicions. I may have a better chance than anyone else to succeed since I am the only other family member who must take medication for mental illness: she regards me as somewhat "on her side" because of this fact. But her paranoia is extremely strong and there is no one she really trusts in this matter. Still, I must try for her sake.
Seeing full blown paranoid schizophrenia makes me feel lucky that I "only" have depression. It is a living nightmare for these people, but I know I don't have to tell you that.
I'll keep you posted on what happens, though it may take some time.Thrud
