I've been hearing voices today and seeing animals, too. I take zyprexa but only one 10mg pill. No PRN meds. The hallucinations don't really scare me, but they're happening pretty often. I have had a virus and felt pretty run down since Sunday, too. (And had those hallucinations at church of angels.)

Call your pdoc and explain what's going on and ask for his advice. He'll probably make some med changes. It's best to nip it in the bud before it gets worse.

Do you think I'll be able to sleep better on this dose?

I do think so. Zyprexa didn't cause nightmare and sudden wake up to me, unlike my current AP, seroquel.

Thank you. I know when I was very first on zyprexa I was sooooo sleepy. I didn't know if this increase would do that too.

Zyprexa knocked my *** out at any dose back when I took it. that's why I don't take it anymore it was just to sedating.

I have taken up to 30mg of Zyprexa a day when mixed and it made me sedated but not unable to function. I did sleep fairly well though, like 6 hours straight plus and afternoon nap. It wasn''t for hallucinations though, just for severe agitation and racing dark mind.

Really hope the increase helps you.

I hope the increased zyprexa puts me into the zone-out mode that it did when I first went on it. I watched the rain coming down on the umbrellas outside Starbucks and all was well.

Are there any actives that distract or calm your mind that you can do? Are you safe?

I'm hoping the med increase helps with the hallucinations. I'm hoping to get some rest after the higher dose. We'll see
