A sensitive poetry

Oh olanzapine,
Oh thief of dreams!
I left you for another medicine,
And you left me sleepless.
Bring back my Zzzzzzz’s
Take back the night.

Doc told me that olanzapine is a sleep aid. Haven’t worked on me yet.

It had me sleeping a lot when taking it. Now going through withdrawal. The doc said may take a month to stabilize.

Olanzapine made me sleep a lot. It made me crave sugar, too. It also made me crave sugar. It’s quite a bit better that the typicals, but it is not without a downside.

I craved sugar too, and became a professional eater.

It tended to make me sleep. That was one thing I liked about it. But the sugar consumption was another matter.
