hello all.
well my mum was at work last night and the nurses were discussing anxiety, so my mum piped up and said that i suffer anxiety pretty bad, and one of the nurses recommended i take Zyprexa, mum told the nurse that there's little to no chance of getting me on a med because i'm scared to death of the bloody things. but i just wanted to hear from anyone who has or is taking it.. i heard it has alot of side effects, so any info u have on your personal experience would help me to decide whether i want to get over my fear of meds and give it a go or not. thanxx xx

" Hi :-)
I take Zyprexa so that I can sleep at night. The medication quiets my racing thoughts, but I can't imagine taking it during the day. The medication makes me extremely tired. I am only taking 5 mg but that might go away with time. Calling your pharmacy might be your best bet because they are the real experts!

Hope you get some relief soon!
