Hello Headcase:

It sounds like you are having an awful time, and I'm sorry that you are struggling.

It's very hard to diagnose problems without meeting you, and you really should go in to a clinic for help.  Where did you get your Zyprexa? It's a pretty strong medication and used for people who are having a hard time. Maybe you can see the doctor who prescribed the Zyprexa.

I don't know where you live, but if money is a problem, there are free clinics in a city near you. If you have insurance, you might consider finding a psychiatrist through your insurance provider, or call your local Medical Association.

 

Best of luck,

Dr. Diana Walcutt
