Can my ap kill my emotions pls?

how are you doing all? me I went out today with my mom. I am less paranoid cause ive increased my Zyprexa like my pdoc told me. but I seem a bit less sensible. I felt anger toward my mom and the day and irritability but the positive emotions are like dead. its a strange feeling. I still have some emotions I guess but I was feeling like being from marble in my head and in my body. the ap kills my reason in a way. but maybe ill get use to that and after some time I wont have this feeling? I still want to can think and to feel…
how is it for you? does your ap kills or thoughts or your emotions? did it get better with time?

I feel my emotions gradually creeping back, the arypicals might cause emotional problems through either the blockade of dopamine or the effects on serotonin. Cognitive dysfunction seems to have many well understood mechanisms which may cure the issue altogether. If you are not too old it might become a waiting game for you to see when the right medication for you comes out. Some mechanisms for the treatment of cognitive deficits are 5ht6 antagonism and a7nachr agonism and pde inhibition.

thanks for the answer @eduvigis. I dont know, I would like that my meds work now, I cant wait, ill waste my life meanwhile :frowning: . maybe its in the beginning of my biggest dose of Zyprexa those problems… maybe emotions and thoughts are really more connected than I think. cause this morning, I felt like a dummie. I had some kind of emotions but I find myself that I wasn’t feeling my spirit you see? maybe I need time…

Initially it did, now I’m starting to feel better again, although I haven’t been able to cry since I started the AP.

after how many months you start to feel better @Mouseymoo? even though that I know that in these things everything is individual…

they treat +ve symptoms and magnify -ve symptoms so emotions go awry

yeah @anon93437440,i know you are against meds… but I still believe that I can recober on emotions even while on ap… my pdoc believes it too

I have taken large doses of ap and realized what they have done to me

yes but pls, dont try to convince others that aps are the evil on earth. without them I even stop eating so I need them.

I’m not at all doing that, I just posted the fact that they have side effects

you yourself mentioned many side effects in many of your posts

and what if my emotions are dying without aps aleady? maybe its possible to recover on emotions too just by maintining myself with an ap :slight_smile:

In this forum it is forbidden to go against ap

use anti psychotics and use these too

I’ve noticed this when I was on high dose of risperidone. i have no problems with my emotions now maybe even a little too emotional. my partner says she has noticed i’m getting better now that i’m on Haldol and latuda.

I ll see how I am with the months coming but I’ll hate if the Zyprexa kills my emotions. I cant accept a life without emotions… the 10 mg of Zyprexa are not for me, I am really a zombie on it. ill continue with my 7,5 mg…maybe I am not even schizophrenic but borderline like one of my pdocs was thinking… I really find that on big dose of Zyprexa, I live without thoughts and emotions… is it a side effect which goes away? some other people here>
p.s.ive tried all other aps, not for me. we still dont have latuda here on the Balkans…
