Zyprexa was used in hospital to get things back into perspective, and actually looking back on it, it was very good. It stopped the feeling like I was constantly being watched, it stopped the feelings like people were talking about me etc. It actually stopped much more of the so say "psychotic" symptoms than the Seroquel did. But for some reason, the Seroquel actually made me feel BETTER, even though quite a lot of psychotic symptoms remained. I just felt less depressed, more positive, generally clearer, and I just felt that I was a GOOD person, that I didn't need to feel bad, that people didn't hate me, etc etc.

So at the time I guess I came off the Zyprexa because it was a case of "yes it's working, but could something else work better?". I wasn't particularly happy, still very down, and just wanted to see if something else might be better.

Seroquel, as I said, left me with more symptoms hanging around (which is why now I'm changing again), but it has made me feel good and able to laugh.

It's all very complicated isn't it. Makes my brain go funny :os
