Zyprexa substitute for anxiety...?

Posted by jms600 on April 14, 2009, at 7:21:16

Hi

Does anyone know if there is an antipsychotic - or any other med for that matter - that has similar calming/anti-anxiety properties to Zyprexa, but without the weight gain?? Benzos are struggling to help my anxiety at the moment so they aren't an option. Tried all the SSRIs as well as Effexor, Remeron, buspirone, lithium, amitriptyline etc without much luck at all.

Zyprexa does help my anxiety but I put on huge amounts of weight while taking it - I'm talking several stones. Is there a worthy substitute for Zyprexa?? Or is there a drug that can be taken with Zyprexa to stop the increased appetite/weight gain?

Any suggestions anyone?

Thanks.
