i just took my zyprexa a while ago.....i do notice zyprexa at night, it clears my thoughts but in someways it makes me not care about things that worry when im not on it, but still im on mood stablizers and there is tons of things i would write about it, but like i've posted, i have vary difficult ADD, even though i have abused stimulants, my symptoms are bad and it is just a endless pool of water going down a stream, having to flow with no help, but heavy doses of these mood stablizers, it's a long story how i was put on these, but .... even though the effects of my mediations, the prozac and lamictal, i notice on lamictal, indirectly it makes me spacey.....but it's difficult because ill take the medcine in the morning, not really notice any effect, but some point in the day notice slightly of the effect......lamictal makes me not worry and get mood swing agitated moods, with heavy zyprexa backing it up
so.....i think the meds are working, they are getting absorbed, but my resistance to the sensitivity of them has greatly increased, even with caffeine, it's a difficult situation, being resistant having to pray to god in my alone time to heal me, because all the tests, and doctors it would be triple expensive over a silly case......
praying to god does have good effect, it's difficult to have faith in somethihng you can't see and frequent failed prayers and disaapointmennts, and then see other people live happy lives like god ment for me to be miserable since day 1, all these christain authors write against being the victim, but you know there is a point in life where you should be allowed to say "i feel like sh*t" and as many bad situations that happen there is nothing wrong with complainging and cursing, but staying in a bad place, and thinking the same is what causes idleness, planning better things, get the motivation to move, and not just float and let things happen to you
ok.....back to what i was saying, rabbit trails when i write, so.....the main thing i notice with attention is that both lamicctal and the zyprexa make me really spacey during the day, but i have learned to learn and pay attention, they seem to stop the hyperactity in my brain that causes the ADHD feeling.......but it's a spacey ride, half the time im day dreaming, then i force myself to get back on track......
stimulants always provide motivation and intrest in things, stimulation to do things, study, hyperfocus but it gets to a point where if you stop taking them you can lose intrest euphoria amphetamine gives......after that, just gotta learn to recoop, my case im on mood stablizer combo.....hell, if it's changing my mood, than thats good enough for me.....

I think you would find it hard to concentrate if you added Topamax. What would you be attempting to treat by adding it?
It sounds like you are having some side effects from your medication. What would you be like on less Zyprexa?
