I'm on Olanzapine 5mg a day (taken twice a day 2.5mg)
At first I didn't want to take it because I was having a delusion that people were switching my drugs, following me etc. But after about a week of taking it the delusions I was having went away - so it works!
It makes me quite tired and I suspect it is making me a bit 'woozy' - like I'm not quite here. I can't concentrate enough to read more than a few sentances at a time and I'm sleeping more than usual. However, I'm pregnant so I might just be tired anyway... I dunno. I'm very up and down in mood at the moment. Sometimes I'm completely fine and then other times I'm feeling like I can't cope, bad things are going to happen and I get suicidal. I don't know if that's related to the meds though.
