"i was confirmed with bipolar disorder in late 2008. my father is a severe case of bi-polar and is medication resistant to the point where e.c.t doesn&#039;t do anything. so my doctors (considering my family history) put me on zyprexa. i had no benefits, only side effects, the worst being recurring hallucinations. i didn&#039;t gain weight (it would be good for me, i weigh about a 100 lbs). it&#039;s not the miracle drug for me."
