I'm currently on Zyprexa (Olanzapine) and, while it does wonders for my suicial thoughts and self harming, the side effects are really bugging me. Within amonth of going back on it I was gaining weight.(I had a 4 months break and lost 35lbs in that time). PLus, it really gives me terrible fatigue, even only at 5mg, and thats ahrd to handle when I am trying to get back into a normal life.
I've heard Geoden is as effective as Zyprexa, but without so much weight gain etc.
