Hi ed_uk2000

90% of the times that i have taken Zyprexa i have responded well to it. I have to take 10mg or above of the drug, and i have to take it daily for a few days before it begins to work, however, i do find it has a good antidepressant efffect and is also good for anxiety.

Unfortunately, Zyprrexa causes terrible weight gain with me, and also causes a lot of daytime drowsiness - even though i take it at night.
