That’s the new med and dose. Will be a three week process getting to it.
How come you’re on a new med? You seemed to be on top of the world?
Ah I don’t want to grow tits

I’m on 15mg, and they say 10mg is a good target dosage!
I would watch out for weight gain on it though! I put on over 5st this time, I have only in the last year managed to loose 2.5st and am a good weight.
Again I refused Risperidone as I didn’t wan’t to lactate or grow breasts!
Yeah. Olazapine olanzapine that stuff seems to be the best alternative. Keep the dose low intentionally. I don’t want to buy new clothes.
When I was on Olanzapine I craved sugar and I slept a lot. I also was mildly depressed. Now I’m on Geodon and Seroquel and I’m doing fine.
Good choice @SoitGoes - just monitor your blood glucose levels while you are on it - 5 mg might be too low for psychosis control (voices) but its a good starting point - good luck with it, I was very mellow on it

I’m also on 5mg olanzapine, along with my 600mg amisulpride. It’s good for the depression!
I wonder if you need meds at all. What i mean is that you had bad symptoms on max dose of respiradle (16mg i think) then you went down to 1mg and still handled yourself very well i must say. Do you think you could handle being without? Also what do you think to antipsychotics up to now?

I wonder but I don’t think it’d be a good idea to try
