For Paranoid Disorder "I had a paranoid stint and was getting no sleep. My Doctor gave me Zyprexa and it pulled me out of that state very quickly. I like to refer to it as pulling out the big guns. It had no side effects for me and I was on it a short while."

For Bipolar Disorder "I was switched to Zyprexa Zydis about two weeks ago by my psychiatrist to help with the huge weight gain and compulsive overeating caused by regular Zyprexa. So far, my appetite has decreased significantly and I'm feeling a lot better about myself physically and emotionally."

For Schizoaffective Disorder "No medication has gotten rid of all of my symptoms but Zyprexa Zydis is one of the best I've tried (and I have tried them all literally). I noticed the munchies on regular Zyprexa tabs but none on Zyprexa Zydis....I have actually lost weight. I gave it a rating of 8 because I still have symptoms of schizoaffective disorder but high enough rating to give it kudos compared to other drugs."

For Schizophrenia "Terrible medicine started taking it when I first had psychotic episode gave me akathesia didn't sleep for a week ended up in ER where they finally realized they should give me tranquilizer put me to sleep for about 6 hours next thing I know I'm being woken up and transported to psych hospital. I slept 0 hours in a week and they wake me up to transport me after a few hours, the hospital was empty with plenty of beds America health care is garbage. They should had just let me sleep as much as possible at the hospital. Absolute garbage."

For Bipolar Disorder "I recently started on Zyprexa Zydis due to some problems I am having with severe nausea and vomiting. I was scared at first because I have been on Lithium for years and have no problems with it. So far (other than the drowsiness) I think this is great."
