Anyone have experience with Zyprexa withdrawal? the first time I withdrew from zyprexa it was pretty easy. I have a feeling this time will be different.

I had no withdrawal syndrome at all from zyprexa or any other AP. On the other hand, because of weight gain, I never stayed on any of these drugs for more than a couple of months.

Yeah I need to get off it. I'm down to about 1.75 grams. The weight gain and the numb dull feeling are not worth tolerating for me. I am feeling more anxiety and I may have a steady headache but this should pass with time.
Thank you both for your response

After about 8 years at 5mg it took me 3 months to wean off, a tiny sliver at a time cut off the edge of the pills.
