I felt pretty flattened when I first started taking Zyprexa in addition to all my other meds. Didn't like it. Eventually though the emotions started coming back, just much less intense than they used to be. I do miss my hypomania, but I DON'T miss the depression or the bouncing-off-the-walls-manic moods. It's all a trade-off.....everyone deals with it in their own way.
