I get what you're saying. I've been "good" with my ED for about three weeks now which is amazing for me. But I know if I went with a med like zyprexa, it would trigger me. Even though I've heard good things about it considering I have severe insomnia. I've even considered it as a PRN but every review I've read had to do with weight gain. It may be a med that straightens you out but It may cost me my health and another relapse of ED. Have to really balance that out. So do I give In and go on zyprexa for a good nights sleep? No. Because there's too much health risk as far as throwing up my food every meal to combat the weight gain. That's just where I stand. And yes do think about saphris. Puts you to sleep and no weight gain. There's many other options out there for you Hun. If the weight gain is harmful to you then try another. That's how I feel at least. ((Hugs))
