Zyprexa? Isn't that one of those weight-gainers? I certainly cannot deal with that as I'm a 20 year old girl who would most certainly be rejected by society if she gained the average 60 pounds I hear of. Seriously though, I've been on seroquel, risperdal, and abilify. The antipsychotics hate me and I hate them (at least the feelings mutual). I gained 10 pounds on seroquel and 5 on risperdal and on the abilify I felt so sick I wanted to sleep my life away. Besides, I'm not psychotic! I mean really, my dog has only talked to me, oh, two or three times! (I'm only kidding... maybe). Anyway, if zyprexa is in this group of drugs that cause major weight gain, there's no way anyone will make me choke that thing down. If I had to choose between cow-dom and insanity, I would most certainly choose insanity.
PS. I know I will most definitely get some (I can't think of the word here but you know what I'm talking about) for this. But please remember, I'm a superficial young woman!
