Just curious if anybody spaces out their Zyprexa dose in the morning/afternoon also, as well as at bedtime. Right now I am on 80mg of Prozac, 100mg Nortriptyline, 4mg of clonazepam a day, and just upped to 15mg of Zyprexa, and .5 mg Risperdal. I take 1 mg of Haldol prn. I know...I know...this sounds crazy and like I am overmedicated, but out of all of my trials (I am in Canada by the way..so no Abilify, etc.) I feel best, more 'normal' on these meds.(And I have been on TONS of meds and combos in the past 12 years.) I just wonder if cutting back the Nortriptyline and Prozac, and keep the antipsychotic dose the same, might help me shed some weight. Any takers...even a guess?
Please and thank-you.(P.S. I am really embarrassed about my weight. It REALLY affects my self-esteem, esp. as I am single, looking for a partner. I wonder if vigorous exercise would help? I tried Dexedrine, but it didn't make me feel too good, and no change in weight on it. )
Thanks very kindly for responses. :-)
