[QUOTE="klmno, post: 146073, member: 3699"] Well, I didn't give him zyprexa tonight- I couldn't take anymore. This kid raged every day he was on it (except the day I od'd him) and, although it doesn't last for extended periods- 1/2 hour at most, he was at psychiatric hospital level tonight and inter-mixed with being an emotional basket case- just like on Thurs. I am assuming this would be what is called rapid cycling (Hey, I'm still trying to figure out the difference between hypomania and full blown mania, so please forgive me) Anyway, I decided this must not be the medication for him. I hate to do that, but when it got to the point that he crawled out of 2nd story window to "walk" on roof below, I had enough. Maybe it does take a few days to get into their system and be effective, but I think there was a risk getting him through another day. So, I guess we are back to sleepless nights and raging on the less frequent level. Like, you know, every two days instead of a couple of times a day with being an emotional basket case in between.... Do you ever find the right mix? Given this reaction, is it worth trying another AP? [/QUOTE]
