I'm on generic Zyprexa (Olanzapine) for 5 mg. Take 1 to 1/5 tablets 1 to 2 times a day. I usually only take half a pill in the morning and half a pill at night. It is very relaxing. Like not benzo relaxing but relaxing. I'm a bit worried about weight gain as it seems to make me hungry and I am on a really low dose. I don't want to gain weight, I am trying to lose weight. But I haven't had any other side effects. I don't notice the relaxation as much now as I did when I first took it but I'm sure it is still there. I take mine for auditory hallucinations though. I do have anxiety (GAD) and I have had panic attacks but I would probably just take my benzo for those, tbh. HUGS Kit
