Hi.
> > It's always possible. However, as far as I know, Seroquel is the only antipsychotic drug that has been associated with drug-seeking behaviour, which suggests to me that some people actually enjoy it.
That's interesting. If you have ever taken Benadryl, how would you compare the mental states produced by Benadryl versus Seroquel?
I am not unique in having a dysporic reaction to Benadryl. Seroquel sounds like an ideal sleep aid.
> I dont get that. I find Zyprexa more ejoyable. Every time it was introduced it gave me an incredible sense of pacification.The first time I took olanzapine (Zyprexa), it was used to cap a manic reaction to Nardil. The day after my first evening dose, I felt great. The improvement was shot-lived, though, and lasted for no longer than a week. Two weeks ago, I tried Zyprexa for sleep. It made me feel like crap the next day. Until I speak to my doctor next, I might try to open a 5mg capsule and take a fraction of its contents.
Interestingly, when Zyprexa first came out, there were numerous reports of it causing mania. I don't know what became of these reports, and why they never emphasized?

Some see things as they are and ask why.
I dream of things that never were and ask why not.The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.
