hello mates. I take olanzapine 10 mg. I started taking it on the 20th of July.
So far so good.
I have gained less than 1 kg so far.
I have been able to exercise.
The intrusive thoughts got way better.
And today there were also signs of cognitive improvement.
I read a long newspaper article.
So far so good.
So far my experience with this medication is spectacular.

Yeah it’s our friend the meds. the benefits I still see every day after 3 1/2 years on meds. I continue to improve in ways I never thought even possible before the meds. I hope the same luck for you!

You are so lucky @Erez_Shmerling , I doubt you’ll gain more weight. I gained like a stone in a week 
I’m happy for you

It’s good to know that Olanzapine is working for you @Erez_Shmerling.
I personally am waiting for the new and improved Zyprexa to come out.

Glad to hear it Erez 
You see, Zyprexa is a good med. besides the weight gain I dont even have a lot other side effects plus, my doc believes that it has an antidepressive effect. Maybe it can help us with negatives wow…

I’ve been on it for almost 20 years, but it’s also having opportunities to better myself that have helped just as much!
