I’ve never heard that, but it doesn’t surprise me, I have heard lots of stuff like it shrinks your brain, but yeah,after almost 18 years I am done with olanzapine. For me Latuda is far more effective at a much lower dose.

I also added l-theanine 100mg twice per day (9am/9pm), that seems to really calm me down when I have some anxiety and agitation from lack of sleep, plus it is suppose to be good for sleep for schizophrenics.This website has an article posted about it: L-theanine is Effective in Lessening Positive Symptoms, and improving Sleep Quality in patients with schizophrenia

I have to admit insomnia takes a lot out of you, without sleep you become a shadow of your former self.
