Well, I quite taking Zyprexa 6 days ago because it was giving me Akathsia like side effects even at 1.25mg,and now as of today my anxiety/depression came back full force.My anxiety is like no anxiety I have ever heard of.It has stolen my life from me.My mind is out of control.To me, I feel like I have some form of schizophrenia thinking.It does not quite and It consumes my life,but my doc assurs me it is anxiety.Anyway, I think I am going to take a dose of Z tonight because it stops my thinking very fast and killes a lot of the depression .I do not like the Akathsia I eventually get but I will have a little reliefe while I am on it.
Do you think a higher dose than 2.5mg would cause more Akathsia?Is 10mg considered a high dose?also,are you taking any other meds along with the Z?And,why are you taking Z?is it for anxiety/depression??
Thanks..........Stann
