> Scientific studies. I don't have the links. At pubmed is where I saw them. One of them was on Zyprexa. They showed that it turns on or turns up about 2 dozen different genes - the weight gain genes obviously turned up. And turns off or down about 2 dozen different genes. Some return to baseline after the drug is removed and some don't. Our meds do a lot more than the things we commonly talk about. There is a lot we don't know. The more we learn, the less we know..

This is probably why I largely lost the ability to feel pleasure after discontinuing olanzapine and still haven't recovered; turned off a few key dopamine genes I presume.
