In reply to Zyprexa for anxiety and depression, posted by FredPotter on June 23, 2005, at 22:31:16
Hey,
I started Zyprexa about two and a half weeks ago. My DX is unclear. Dysthymia and anxiety for much of my adult life. Both worsened over the last couple of years. The dysthymia to depression, and the anxiety to rumination and social phobia. I might BP II, due to a couple of "good" mood spells in the past and an episode of AD-induced hypomania.
Anyway, I've been looking for something to pick me up and settle me down for the last couple of years. I should knock wood when I say this, but it looks like the Zyprexa 2.5 mg is doing the trick.
I felt very out of it for the first couple of days. But I also felt what I think you mean by "breakthrough peace". 18 days later that seems to be more of a constant.
Good luck,
