I just cant figure out why the sale and manufacture of this poison has not been banned yet.


You cant figure it out? Come on copy, I know you got more sense..... That would be the equivalent of saying why hasn't Mcdonalds been banned yet, you do know what they put in that stuff right?

Its all about capitalism and money, a multinational like the big pharmas aren't going anywhere. Especially in the US which is a neo fascist corporate state.

Problem is, I had to take a super high dose which would be considered an overdose to some people just to get to sleep. I would take something like 150mg of Temazepam or 6mg of Ativan. No doctor would prescribe me enough benzos to actually sleep so eventually the Zyprexa insomnia just overpowered it and I ran out of benzos.


I think Zyprexa withdrawal is benzodiazepine and nueroletic withdrawal combined, it felt that way and look at the drug chemical name: 2-methyl-4-(4-methyl-1-piperazinyl)-10H-thieno[2,3-b][1,5]benzodiazepine

Does Seroquel help at all ? Just one third of the smallest pill made 25mg makes me hungry and sleepy when used for normal insomnia, one third is 8.33 mg. Thats nothing, seroquel comes in 400mg tabs.

Im going through withdrawl right now, down to 1.25mg of Zyprexa and am already starting to feel withdrawl symptoms, I have slight nausea, wrestlesness, heat stroke even with AC on, confusion,etc...

And I do NOT want to go to the hospital, I just want to lock myself in room till this is over.

I have Lorazepam to help a bit thing is I already have a high tolerance for it and it barely does anything to me. What would you suggest to make this go as easy as possible?
