> I've been taking zyprexa for 10 years and I thought I would never get off it,
How much were you taking?
>tried to many times, with realy bad results. This time I've been off it totaly for 2 days and previously for a week at half the dose. So far so good. I'm replaced the zyprexa with a small dose of abilify.
How much?
>I used to take zyprexa religiously every day, never miss a dose out of fear. The last time I stoped the zyprexa compleatly I lasted 5 days or so before I was talking suicide.
My best for cold turkey is nine days. Went down from 5 mg, but I had only been on it for 4 years.
>This time is different. I feel better than on the zyprexa.
Just taking the small dose of Abilify?
>hopfully I can do this for the whole month and then I will be done with it. My weight and blood sugar are already getting better.
Good luck. Will you stay with the small dose of Abilify?
