I've been taking zyprexa for 20 years now. As long as I'm taking enough I have no problems. Works just as well as it did in the beginning. It has totaly changed my life. Giving me the ability work and function normaly like before I went psychotic. Zyprexa worked from day one to year 20! It was a really dramatic change from before zyprexa. Where I could not function like a normal humanbeing. I was house riden delusional couldn't eat sleep drive a car-to now where I have been working for most of the time on zyprexa making freinds going places. One thing though, my appatite has gone down since I started it. The only times I had problems was when I went off the zyprexa. Then I went back into the state I was in before, every time. If it weren't for zyprexa, who knows what would have happened to me. I'd probably be homless and on drugs.
Anouther thing I'm more functional in society than before I went psychotic. So ya, I would give zyprexa a 5 star!The other meds have come and gone over the years and are much less significant in my recovery. But some have helped, like perphenazine. Which is the first AP I was on that worked. I didn't take it for long because it made me tired. Probably had me on too high a dose. But I started taking it again, about 8 years ago, and it has been a great addition to zyprexa. Not exactly sure what its doing. But things are better since I added it. Going off it didn't help. I got really irritable and angry. Even before the perphenazine when on zyprexa I was always angryish.
Zoloft, I have been taking about 8 years as well. I took celexa for a few years right bofore that. Both were about as helpfull at reliving my depression and putting me in a good mood and more positive thinking.
So yes, I've had a really good response to meds. Atleast the ones that worked.
