>i've always thought (somehow) zyprexa increases my dopmanine (i know its labeled antagonist) but maybe it allows for more in the syntaptic cleft?
Zyprexa downregulates dopamine and antagonizes 5ht receptors. It is not a dopamine reuptake inhibitor. If there were something left in the synaptic cleft it would just stay there. It would not set off an action potential and the neuron would remain at rest. Usually anything residing in the synaptic cleft gets cleaned up by one enzyme or another.

It still should, I just think you need a higher dose because you're not on a mood stabilizer.
>i was so immobilized that i couldnt have acted if i wanted to.
Good. If you ever are in crisis, just babblemail me.There is another problem. You're taking 100 mg of Pristiq , which may be destabilizing your mood. That's a maximum dose. Oi, mi ija! I became manic on 50 mg of Pristiq. I'm not going to tell you to change the dose or anything, just know it could be f*ck*ng you up.
