I'm sitting at a coffee shop with my frind and I'm so tired! Yes, I took my thyroid med so it must be the zyprexa. I suppose I can make myself stay up until bedtime. I do 99% of the time. Its so hard to do sitting here at the fire. lol

I can imagine. But Zyprexa doesn't seem to so that to me. But I only take it as needed so that could be the reason. I hope you hit your second wind to carry you to bed time.

Mine quit working at .5 mg then so did 1 mg after a week so now I'm at 1.5. So far so good. I take it for agitation, mixed-like states, depression... you name i, he cure is to up my zyprexa. Seems that when I'm off it, I'm worse. Much worse.

Same here, but from Lithium. Slept 11 hrs last night. Tired all morning...feeling like a slug. Took a 3 hour nap hoping i'd sleep it off, but here i am still feeling tired. Not even my usual strong Cuban espresso is making a dent. I'm about ready to ask my pdoc to prescribe me some meth if this damn side effect doesn't subside quick. ugh...

Hopefully it will stop making you tired as your body gets used to it. I never had that side effect to lithium and never tried Zyprexa, so I have no idea.

Yes. I don't think sitting by that fire helped either.

I'm in bed now.
