Open original source ↗
“I've realised I'm emotionally numb and hollow, have experienced no real emotions for two years and have lost my personality. I used to be a very talkative person but now I run blank and have nothing to share more often than not... I'm foggy, slow, have no memory and can't think straight”
Cause
r/BipolarReddit first-person OP u/ev0164 (post g0i03j): on olanzapine/Zyprexa nearly two years (bipolar). Attributes running blank / nothing to share, fog, can't think straight, plus emotional numbness/hollowness with no real emotions, no love/happiness or empathy for two years, to Zyprexa. Unused olanzapine-primary BOTH lane.
Duration
~2 years on olanzapine at Apr 2020 post; numbness 'for two years'
Recovery notes
Still on Zyprexa at posting and wanting to come off; asks if others got off it. No later OP update found in author's indexed posts (later posts on BPD/ADHD topics, none report recovery).
