Low dose Zyprexa for anger, temper, insomnia

Posted by betternow on January 11, 2003, at 17:00:38

Hi,
I have been on ssris for depression/mood disorder for many years. For many years I have been trying to find a better med or combination of meds that would relieve my mood disorder without killing my orgasms-I am male!.

To describe my disorder I would say I am not BP, or psychotic. I am not even sadly depressed, but rather lack motivation and desire. My anxiety is high and I can really lose my temper. Throw things punch walls, even punch myself. But I am never violent toward other people, just myself and objects. I also have bad insomnia.

Anyway, for years I have been trying to solve this problem without wrecking my sex life.
I am currently taking Celexa 20mg qd in the AM, Buspar 15mg bid, ritalin 5mg qd in the AM, and Xanax .5mg before bed. This works OK, but still have a hard time achieving orgasm.

Could anyone comment on replacing Celexa with low dose-2.5mg to 5mg Zyprexa. My Pdoc has suggested, but I am reluctant because Zyprexa seems to have lots of side effects or does it?

thanks
betternow
