Ive also been afraid of gettin Tardive Diskynesia from my antipsychotics. But my doctor says that the new kinds dont have as much risk for that as the older ones. I dont know, Im still scared.
I just wanted to add that I hate Zyprexa because it made me gain 30 pounds in two months, when I wasnt even over eating. I dont even remember if it helped with my symptoms but I do remember hating the fact that I kept on putting weight when I ate the same as I always have eaten.
I have lost some of the weight since I switched but Im still struggling with it. It sucks.
Good luck to everyone thats on Zyprexa, and if you like it then its kool. Im not saying its worthless either.
