Bipolar Disorde
"This medicine works really well as a mood stabilizer for me. The only MAJOR drawback is weight gain. I just can&#039;t control myself when the carb cravings happen. I am usually very much in control of my dietary habits, but on Zyprexa that just isn&#039;t possible. I also suffer from schizoaffective disorder and hear voices. Although Zyprexa suppresses them, it does not completely get rid of them in my case; they are quiet enough to tolerate though. I have gained 35 pounds in less than about a month and a half. I am going to wean off of these and ask the psych-doc for something else."
