Hello,

Are you seeing a psychiatrist? How long have you been on 10mg Zyprexa?

Try taking 20 mg for a while, see if you get better. Reduce it again if you feel you are taking too much.

Do you think it could be have a component of social anxiety. Many people who are fearful in crowds think that people are watching what they do and judging what they how they look etc.
This is not best treated with AP's

The other type of possibility is the psychotic angle where you believe people are more "spying on you". In this case a higher dose of zyprexa might be useful

I had the same problem , and I did not found relief increasing my Zyprexa dose.
I only reached 10 mg and then changed to another medicine.
I agree with link, it sounds more like social anxiety
