Advice & Tips: I did not believe this medication would change anything for me, but it did. It works even though I did not believe it would. I use to feel my psychotic symptoms were truly real, but after being on Zyprexa for awhile, I now believe they are not and never were truly real. The side effect of internal restlessness (akathisia) is bad.
