I have been taking Lithium at 900 mg and Zyprexa at 5 mg and also 10 mg. I am tapering off the Zyprexa, down to 3.75 mg now (1/2 of a 7.5 mg tablet). Zyprexa was giving me flat affect and negative symptoms like anhedonia, avolition etc... Funny thing is I now find the 3.75 much more effective than the 5 mg. LESS is sometimes better. I only took Zyp for insomnia in the first place.
Could you try Zyprexa at 2.5 mg or even 3.75 mg?
