Well, my diagnosis is something of a mess -- they think I might be bipolar II and I think the zyprexa is supposed to help with that too? I also haven't been able to tolerate ANY ADs (not because they made me manic, but because of side effects like weight loss or nervousness).
I was on high doses of ativan, and my pdoc wanted to decrease those... so I don't know. I feel like a mess; I've been diagnosed with ADD but I can't take anything for it because of anxiety.
Is risperdal riskier than zyprexa, then? I only take the 2.5 mg of zyprexa and I'd be on maybe one or two .25 mg doses of risperdal a day.
Thanks,
Allie
