> Kelly, I haven't been here very long, but I can tell you that no one here feels like you are being a bother. We've all been there...I'm not too knowledgeable about treatments, but there must be something else out there for you. You need to call your doctor and let him/her know how you're feeling. Why were you advised to go off Zeprexa? You do need to be pro-active - research some of the other meds for your diagnosis. Others here can tell you where to do that...I wish I could. But please do something on your behalf; nobody needs to feel so alone and helpless. People here will help you get through this, I know. Keep us posted! Take care, liz
