Is it possible? Just been wondering about this…
Cause I really started to pay more efforts now, but my fears got bigger too. In addition to the related somatics…
Maybe I need the 10 mgs now that I start to fight? But I wonder if this ap can cause more fears or even paranoia in his start? It could be the illness too though idk…
No, it’s not zyprexa. It’s your fear of socializing. You have somatic symptoms because of anxiety. Zyprexa is a good med. I take it, along with haldol, abilify and clozaril

Pretty sure that zyprexa does the opposite. It’s supposed to relieve anxiety.
Could be different for you, but I’m not sure.

Who else found though, that in the start his ap lifted a bit his paranoid sensations, the paranoia in itself and the anxiety? I wonder if this will settle down?.. I am also dizzy since being 3 days on the 10 mgs of Zyprexa… Its a tough med lol…
On zyprexa i got the scariest nightmares when i started, i literally fainted all the time and it made me terribly anxious. This was just at the start though, it went away. Abilify gave me anxiety and restlessness too. So it is possible.

Certain meds like invega made my symptoms crazy. I was so bad from that med that i had to be hospitalized from it.
And it was an injection so i had no way of just stopping it.
It made me absolutely bonkers …

I’m pretty sure that risperidone makes my paranoia and anxiety a little worse.
But without risperidone I become highly paranoid and delusional.
Can’t win.

Why so? Why the aps cause more paranoia and anxiety? Because they lower the dopamine, which is the happiness? 
…
I wonder if this will settle down… My fears make me unfunctional tbh… Maybe I need years so this will settle down, how do you think? My doc was saying that they can take years to act for me, lol…
Even my mother was torturing me yesterday while wondering how so there is no ap, which didn’t calm down my fears, yeah…
Zyprexa was the best med i ever took for anxiety !!

Oh, this sounds promising @anon39015889. Maybe I really need time that it works on my paranoia and anxiety? Maybe docs are right, that the paranoia is the hardest thing to get rid of? My pdoc said that ill need years to feel my meds, lol… I lived too much time as being ill, my head was screwed up, really… I wasn’t feeling the anti anxiety effect from the meds, but this can come no? Those pills are not candies, isn’t it? 
How long till you felt normal?
I got the shot on sept 17th… how long till its out of my system?
