Yikes! I took Zyprexa one night in the middle of a 15-month-long bout of anxiety, insomnia and depression. It turned off the noise in my head and I slept like a log, but I felt like a zombie the next day. Then I read about the weight gain (and potential for tardive dyskinesia) and I decided it wasn't the drug for me. Sure was nice to get a night's sleep, though.
