Thanks Innerzone. So far I have been taking Zyprexa for 3 days, and I am feeling drunk, bewildered, slightly depressed, and very sleepy. If anything I am having more intense de-realisation experiences on it, with increased nausea. No hallucinations, though (as far as I can tell). Yesterday I was so agitated I couldn't sit still. Unbearable ticklish sensations deep inside, pulsing through me. It reminded me of the time I was on Prozac.

My wife and I are driving our 3 daughters to Grahamstown (a day's drive) for one of the girls to compete in the national climbing championships. We then head for the coast to just chill for a week with my sister. I will probably not be accessing the internet while we are away. A complete "down tools".

When we get back I go straight into psych hospital on 3-4 May for a 24hr EEG followed by an MRI (and face my new pdoc who was seriously PO'd with me for delaying getting onto Zyprexa. I have uncomfortable feelings about how this is going to turn out).

I'll catch up with you all when I get back.
