Its unfortunate that you have that side-effect, which I consider paradoxical because Zyprexa is being used to help speech (stop stuttering):
Anderson, Jeffrey M. Developmental stuttering and Parkinson's disease: the effects of levodopa treatment. Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry. 66(6):776-778, June 1999.
"However, more recent dopamine antagonists such as risperidone or olanzapine, with fewer side effects than haloperidol, may provide a tolerable treatment option for developmental stutterers..."
