Hi Sebastian,
Thank you for your words of encouragement. I am happy that Zyprexa has been of such help to you!This is my third night taking Zyprexa 2.5 mg. I feel pretty groggy and mentally slow when I wake up. Will I get used to the grogginess? I can't even imagine working my way up to 5 mg! I guess I shall take it one day at a time.
My question: Why or how does Zyprexa cause weight gain? Does it increase appetite. I fear that I will end up with non-insulin dependent diabetes if I gain a significant amount of weight.
I don't want to add body image issues to my problem list.
Thanks again, SebastianAnneL
