I feel like I have a hamster on a wheel inside my stomach and chest. I did take the first Zyprexa yesterday; it did help the anxiety, but I felt heavily sedated, even though the dose is small. I might break the pills in half for the first few doses and allow my body to adapt to the intense reaction.

I had a decent appointment with the new pdoc. I could tell she was trying really hard to improve our relationship - and I was trying really hard, too. I think we both felt better after the session. Grateful.
I'm so sorry Beth I am glad they the Zyprexa has helped, The " sedation" will sort it's self out and it will just help you to with anxiety. I would probably do half dose too.

Thats surprising that the Pdoc is working to be more helpful.. I wonder if people complained enough for her to act better??? Regardless I am not it wasn't and absolute negative finally..
