Why does God want me on anti-psychotics?

If satan is real, he works through the acts of the ignorant. That same person suggesting one ignores the advice of actual experts probably wouldn't hesitate to submit to that "evil" pharmaceutical if someone they loved hung in the balance. It's repulsive and arrogant. We are stewards of the earth and that attitude is sinful.

OP is already off his meds and he doesn't like me much and won't listen to me so relax Phyllis Schafly.

I dunno much about Soren, I just dislike Evia's attitude. Reminds me of my brother-in-law... cps intervened when he tried to pray my niece's mental illness away after she started doing a lot of very suicidal stuff. Drugs are just tools.

I am not off Olanzapine. I am back to 7.5 mg.

Are there no other options for your condition?

I swapped Olanzapine for Quetiapine once but could not sleep and felt numb and had a headache. With Olanzapine I sometimes have a headache and I have no motivation to do anything other than staying at home and playing videogames.

correlation =/= causation

Same issue with all the mass murders on psych meds. Can we prove the psych meds caused the issue or was it some other condition or illness and the psych meds merely an unrelated attempt at treatment

If wanting to sit at home and play video games was exclusive to Olanzapine, there wouldn’t be hundreds of thousands of dudes all over the world not on Olanzapine in the same position. And there are

I have a simpler solution:

Well, I'd recommend that you keep pushing your doctor to try different meds. It feels like there are new drugs coming out constantly, and it doesn't matter if you have to suffer through trying ten different drugs that don't work, with crazy miserable side effects ... if the eleventh one gives you control of your mind (with tolerable side effects), it will be worth it.

You are ridiculous m8. I want to get rid of drugs completely and you want me to try a few more drugs. Doesn't anyone realize how stupid this sounds. Ask me, all this mental illness thing, depression, schizophrenia, bipolar, psychosis, ocd, just a bunch of made up nonsense, pseudo-science, so that big pharma can sell their magic pills. I will try to taper it off again it seems. What else can I do. Nothing. And noone's helping me.
