She once told me that if she put me on them I would never get off of them. Maybe because she considers the hypomania too mild for treatment? I guess getting yourself fired from multiple jobs doesn't constitute extremely manic bevahiour. I was on zyprexa briefly (prescribed by a physician's assistant I had never met before nor since) that was very, very bad for me. I slept for 16 hours a day and ate ravenously, packing on 15 lbs in a month. Plus it was the first time I had felt the slightest suicidal.
