In reply to Starting to take zyprexa for anxiety, posted by jenna23 on January 25, 2002, at 23:24:32
> Hi Jenna,
I've been suffering from anxiety and depression since June. The antidepressants which I was prescribed initially made the anxiety even worse, sometimes I thought I was losing my mind. The only thing which seemed to help was Zyprexa, it was truly a God Send, although it didn't lift the depression it gave me calmness within a few hours (but I had to take at least 5mg). I've weaned myself off the Zyprexa now and find that I no longer need it, however, it's nice to know that it is still there if needed. Of course we are all different and it may not work the same way for you but it definately got me out of some devastating situations, I don't know what I would have done without it. I did find that sometimes it made me feel a bit flat but at least that was better than the anxiety which I was experiencing.
Good Luck
Denise
