Hi I'm currently taking 300mg Effexor XR and 750mg twice a day of Depakote for anxiety and depression. I've been taking them for about 3 years and while it has helped me alot I feel I'm at a stand still and not getting any better. I've tried Xanax and has on that for a couple of years. My old doctor thought it would be fun to put my on a highly addictive drug for a long period of time.. I digress. I've tried other things but nothing has worked that great. I talked my doctor and now they are going to put me on Zyprexa 2.5mg to see how that work. I originally talked to him about Serzone but he said he thought the Zyprexa would be better. I'm still staying on the Effexor and Depakote for now to see what happens. Has anyone taken Zyprexa for anxiety? Did it help? What are the side effects? I've heard about weight gain but you get that with Effexor and Depakote any way.
Thank you in advance for any help!!
