In reply to Re: Zyprexa Withdraw Question, posted by juliaf on March 26, 2001, at 1:00:13
I've stopped Zyprexa before, after psychotic symptoms going away and just after stopping I get really depressed and anxious. I never thought of it as withdrawal but I guess that is what it might be. It might just be the ending of the manic phase that was being treated by the Zyprexa. But, anyway, I too felt horrible, but it goes away in about a week for me.
In the past, I had the same reaction but I was taking an older AP, called Loxitane. After, the mania and psychosis was gone and I stopped the med, I quickly became depressed and gloomy and anxious. But, it also relatively quickly went away.
Actually both times the depression was very deep and horrible and lonely.
Anyway,
I hope you are feeling better soon!!!Jed
