Hi, I'm Naomi. I'm trying to taper off Olanzapine and it's been a struggle. I found the article on this site and I'm hoping to document my experience for others.

Zyprexa — 0.6 — 10 months — holding | Zoloft — 50mg — 10 months — supporting others | without clinician

Hi Naomi, welcome! Glad you're here so you can receive proper guidance on tapering Olanzapine. If you use the Check-In feature you can track your progress and symptoms as time goes on. Have a look around the site. There's lots of helpful information about tapering and how to deal with withdrawal symptoms. You're getting close to the end, so many people find they have to take things extra slowly. Are you planning on tapering Zoloft after you're finished with Olanzapine? We look forward to supporting you! Catina 🩷

Venlafaxine (tapering) - Current dose 17.92 mg
Trazodone - 50 mg
Levothyroxine - 25 mcg
