Larry Lewis said:It’s a total joke—absolute beggary. You go see a private psychiatrist, and they won't just hand you a prescription like a normal human being; instead, they give you some clinical report where
they scribble down whatever therapy they feel like prescribing at that exact moment, and then you take that little note
to your primary care physician (who, let’s be honest, often decides on their own whim to simply refuse to fill the medication they were actually prescribed)
. So, I find myself sitting there, crossing my fingers, praying that the GP actually writes the script so you can finally pick up your (sedative) medication at the pharmacy.

>Thanks for getting back to me. I went to see the doctor at the local clinic and she actually agreed to switch the prescription over to an e-prescription,🙂

Hey everyone,
so, just a quick bit about me—I’ve been dealing with F20.0 paranoid schizophrenia. Currently on Zyprexa at 7.5 mg. I was wondering if anyone else here is navigating the same diagnosis... and honestly, does this thing even have a cure? Like, is there actually an end goal here or is it just a lifelong thing? Also, another thing—I stopped seeing my psychiatrist at the public hospital and decided to switch over to a private specialist instead. The prescription hasn't changed, but I'm curious... will my local family doctor actually write me a refill for a script that was originally ordered by a private doctor? Thanks in advance for any insight,

Quick question—how did you guys feel once you finally stopped taking Zyprexa? Specifically, when your psychiatrist started tapering you off. Did you notice an increase in energy, drive, or just general willpower? I’m asking because I’m currently on 10mg of Zyprexa and I feel totally sluggish and numb—it's rough. I guess I'm wondering if these side effects actually go away once you're off the meds.

Thanks in advance!

Look, I was on 10 mg of Zyprexa too, and yeah, that total brain fog was real. Now I’m down to 6.5 mg and honestly... I still don't feel 100% sharp or sober, so it's pretty obvious that this is just part of the deal with this medication. We just have to grit our teeth and push through it.🙂

I was on the 10 mg dose before and—honestly? I was basically a zombie... I couldn't think, couldn't remember a single thing, just a total nightmare. Now that I've dropped down to 6.5 mg, at least my brain is somewhat functioning again, though I still feel like I'm running on half-power... if that makes sense? Like, I’m just a bit slower—it takes me a beat longer to process things than it used to.

Hey everyone, I'm new here... just wanted to see if anyone else is on Zyprexa and what kind of side effects you're dealing with. Right now, I'm taking 6.5 mg and honestly? I feel totally spaced out—like I'm just drifting through life unable to actually engage with the real world... does anyone else get that feeling? That's about it.
