I had a really weird reaction to halfing my dose and drinking alcohol

Recently i had to half my dosage of 7.5 mg of olanzapine for 2 -3 days and i had drunk 3 glasses of alcohol too the next day i was so teary eyed and sad i couldnt stop crying that day is todaym i have had this really sad song on repeat in my head all day and i cant turn it off. I took 5mg today and i felt immediately better.

Alcohol doesn’t mix with most antipsychotics

Im not going to drink again

If your meds agree with it then just drink a good glass of wine on rare occasions.
The only reason that I must stay away from.alcohol is that I had a drinking problem 20 years ago.

Alcohol used to mke me depressed next day. Someone told me to take b-complex when ever i drink. It seemed to work and i didnt feel bad the next day.
