tried
-risperdal (didn't seem to do anything for me) and -seroquel [mostly for sleep-which it worked like a charm but ended up with bad side effects (effecting cognition)] so stopped that.
-zyprexa at 10 worked for me before but my GP Rx it for me (initial Dx) then i went to see pdoc and he took me off it (that guy wouldn't listen to me either) then switced pdocs, now have a great one, but i was in the hospital for depression recently and had a 'freak out' day...(i don't think the nurses new what to make of it) i just needed to let it run it's course...anyway the pdoc there put me on 5mg of zyprexa, that just made me eat constantly and still didn't help 'up' feeling so i took myself off it, 4 days later i cut...smart huh. well, alls well that ends well. i'm healing physically and see pdoc tomorrow to discuss this wacky cr@p that's going on in my head.

B2c.> haha, depression on speed! that's so accurate. i hadn't read that before you mentioned it again in your post.
> i'm so glad your hand is okay. that's really scary what happened!
> i've only had zyprexa at 2.5mg, and that was too much. i grew fat and laid around all day. 10mg is ambitious. let us know how it turns out. have you tried any of the other atypicals?
