Hey Ed :)
The motivation is there to quit to a certain extent, yet at the same time I'm having a hard time. I tried to reduce myself to a lighter kind of cigarette and within a day I was feeling the effects and back I went to my other cigs.
I can only handle Zyprexa for a couple of days before it (akathisia) starts to set in. One PDOC told me that patients used to get it so bad that they would throw themselves off of buildings in mental hospitals. How pleasant. You feel wierd, like you want to run around the world or something, very restless. I must have sensitive dopamine receptors, even Buspar does it to me, which is really wierd. Buspar itself has some mild dopamine receptor blockage. One PDOC wanted me to try Geodon, which is both a receptor antagonist and agonist. I politely declined :)> Hi Chris!
