"i initially started on 5 mg and after 2 weeks my doctor put me on 10 mg. i feel fantastic. my mind doesn&#039;t race anymore and i&#039;m finally sleeping all night long. short lived groggy feeling in morning, i make myself get up and move, that seems to work the best. the suicidal thoughts are gone and i just feel really good. no weight gain yet but i do exercise 3-4 times a week. only noticeable side affect is i seem to be thirstier and dry mouth. for my zyprexa has been amazing!"
