olanzapine eating disorder

I'm on 5mg olanzapine and 20mg fluoxetine need to know the best dose before my review

I am on Epilim and Olanzapine, I have started to have a slight tremor in both my hands, on and off, then last week I had two days where my hands shaked violently when I picked up a drink, is this the meds or have they got my illness wrong and it is some other nerological disorder like MS or something. Another good reason to stop taking my meds.

what would you say to that. I will also discuss this with my doc. I also have depression, eating disorder for which i was quarter of olanzapine and fluoxetine combine. coz my weight has shot up causing bp so i have stopped the meds for depression now.

since my last posts i have finaly seen a decent shrink who has proplerly Diagnosed me with Bipolar Disorder and mixed anxiety disorder. the Shrink has put me on 10mg of Olazapine a day with the intent to push my dosage up to 20mg a day.this is defenatly helping with my sleep and moods.as for my DHC addiction i have fallen off the wagon a bit..i have been taking upto 1000mg a day..im hoping now that im on the Olanzapine it should help me cut down the DHC..

from last 3 years she is taking olanzapine 10. i just want to know is this type of behaviour is mental abnormality or heridetary disesses.

I saw a psychologist who gave me olanzapine to take and suggested I may be bipolar but I have refused to go back as I do not respect their opinion as they assumsed to think I was either bipolar or normal and did not take into consideration any other disorders. In the last 2 1/2 years I have also dealt with confusion about my sexuality which I have now mainly resolved (I'm straight).

I have been on olanzapine for 15 years and has helped me greatly with anxiety, and other mental health conditions. I am 35 years old and have over the past 7 weeks experienced extreme pain in my feet and ankles. I had also over the past 6 months experienced tingling in the feet and legs which I believe is a side effect of long term use off olanzapine. I have been very concerned over the servere pain in my feet as it is all over the foot and can be painful to walk on.

I am about to switch from olanzapine to seroquel. Is it ok to just stop taking olanzapine and start taking seroquel? I am on a very low dose of olanzapine.

Zyprexa (olanzapine) is an atypical antipsychotic medication. Exactly how it works is not known. It is thought to work by changing the actions of certain chemicals in the brain. Zyprexa is used to treat the symptoms of psychotic conditions such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder (manic depression) in adults and children who are at least 13 years old. Zyprexa is sometimes used together with other antipsychotic medications or antidepressants.

I was put on olanzapine an anti phycotic on top of my fluvoxamine meleate 200mg for deap depression after and home invasion. While the olanzaoine was helpful with my depression i think it was also causing leg pain. the longer I took it for the worse the pain got and more pain meds I needed to take to get threw my day to just walk. Once I was strong enough to come off olanzapine I weaned my self off and the leg pain started to get better over time.

I am 30 years old male and i have been suffering from anxiety and have obsessive features since my childhood which aggravated during my teenage and i was diagonised with Panic disorder with agoraphobhia, insomnia, and concurrent obsessive thoughts. I have been on medications for last 7-8 years. Currently I am taking the following medicines: Fluoxetine 60 mg, Olanzapine 2.5 mg, clonazepam 0.5 mg, Mirtazapine 15 mg.

I had paranoia too, but it was just another characteristic of the psychosis I had with the bipolar disorder. The olanzapine did help, btw. I did end up on Seroquel, which worked mostly at maximum beneficial dose. . Quite a few people I know had tremors from the Seroquel, besides falling asleep on 50 mg, and as you know, that is low dose. They were slurring words because they were falling asleep as they were talking, amd would nod off.

I lost connection to this site unfortunately never read any of those response thanks for being consistent and still replying. They only diagnosed her with eating disorder and started meds two months ago.

I believe that I may be on my way to an eating disorder. I am 34 years old, 5'3" and I weigh 107. I am very petite and always have been. I haven't truely ever worked out, I've just been very very lucky. Even after having two kids, I lost all the weight without doing much. From as far back as I can remember I have always had problems eating if I was overly stressed or emotional about something. During those times, I will not eat.

how can i can cope with weight changes in eating disorder recovery? I have eating disorder not otherwise specified had it since 7th grade , now 19. Also how can i deal with the sickness that accompanies me after eating.?

Hi, Im 15, weigh 47kg (103 pounds) and am about 163cm. I have a athletic body, and im worried that i might be getting a eating disorder. My mum says its just how im built, and i'll get better. First of all, im scared to gain weight, and go over 50kg. I know im growing, but i dont wont to gain weight. I dont eat breakfast, sometimes lunch, and mabey dinner. I weigh myself, and if i think im getting close to 50kg, i wont eat, and might do some exercise.

They are about more than just food. Whatever was going on underneath that was fueling your eating disorder is still there. You might want to consider some support in the form of counseling from a therapist experienced with eating disorders. OA is also a good source of support and learning and working the steps with a sponsor. It's hard to do this alone.

Being fearful of gaining weight and continually working to keep your weight at an unnatural low is indeed the sign you may have an eating disorder. Nobody can diagnose you online but I assume you are posting because you suspect that is what is going on. But you are ahead of the game because you recognize it is not healthy! I encourage you to get some help. It may not be something you can just figure your way out of.

You definitely have an eating disorder. There is something called non specific, where you niether fit exactly into a catergory.Purging is not good for you ,EVER. NO matter how often , its so bad for your body and teeth. I have suffered from bulimia and I know its a struggle. MY advice is to not restrict yoursefl to 300 cal a day or anything under1200-1500. Your body will go into starvation mode and retain more water and food and in the long run it will make you fatter and unhealthy.
