Time and Time again, zyprexa is my ONE saving grace.
i cant tell you how when i am as bad off as i could possibly be, give me zyprexa and within one day i noticed a little difference by one week i'm pretty d@mn stable.after my pregnancy i went downhill pretty fast and was bawling constantly, i went into the hospital (per doctors request) and they gave me zyprexa that night, the next day the depression was still there but the crying stopped.
i still need a little augment (using pristiq this time) but i can't tell you how wonderful zyprexa has been for me.
though usually i need 10mg to work it's wonders.
becareful of going up to fast, could get swollen tongue and other weirdness.i'm only on 5 now (that's why i need the augment). just because i was overweight due to the pregnancy and didn't want any extra help gaining more.
*****************************
the first two times they put me on zyprexa i didn't gain any weight...or maybe a pound or two.
my key then was drinking LOTS of water with it. and when you think your hungry at night, drink water first, usually does the trick.this last time i did gain weight...but to be honest, i was so bad off...i'll take the weight to being dead.
*****************************
point being, worry about the weight later (you may or may not gain it), get stable now.BEST WISHES!!
