In reply to Update on starting Zyprexa- positive results!!, posted by jerrypharmstudent on June 20, 2009, at 20:34:11
Hooray! I don't know about placebo--you really were apprehensive about taking it, right? So you were conditioned to think it wouldn't work or that its side effects would be too much...so I'd say, enjoy this success!
> I started Zyprexa 5mg on Monday and I've had a wonderful response to it already. Weird thing is no side effects - no sedation or increased appetite. BUt it has controlled my anxiety amazingly - I don't feel the need to take my klonopin at all. My mood has increased as well, I don't feel dread or the hopelessness I was feeling before.

> Could I be feeling such a positive response so soon or is this the famous "placebo effect?"

> Anyway, OH - FYI I'm taking it for Major Depression w/ Anxiety.
