Hello Sad Mermaid,
I was put on Olanzapine because of having OCD. Our GP's are crap to be honest! The psychiatrist kept saying to me he didn't understand why I was still on it because of the diabetes.
I have always said since 2009 to the psychiatrist/GP about Bipolar but nobody wants to listen to me. The moods have got a LOT worse since leaving hospital which is when I was taken off of Olanzapine. It wasn't even gradual I took it one day then the next I wasn't. The moods have always been there (one day ecstatic then boom low moods for like a few days)!
I just don't know who's going to listen to me.
