Hi all, newb here so be gentle.

I was recently prescribe Symbyax (already take Lithium, Lamictal, and Concerta for BPD and ADHD) and was wondering how long it takes for the "zombie" effect to wear off. I took it for a couple of days and slept 10hours + and then felt like I couldn't function for a good 2 hours or so upon waking. I'm pretty strict about taking my meds (after a couple of years of on and off with meds) but can't deal with the sleep and stupor effect that it has. I don't see my pdoc for another week so I thought I'd get some input from people that have/are taking it.

Don't know, just wanted to say welcome to CB! Took Zyprexa for a while but can't remember how much of a zombie I was, anyway it's not exactly the same as symbyax. There are probably more people on Olanzapine (Zyprexa) and/or prozac than on Symbyax (which is Zyprexa + prozac ), so you probably get more answers if you broaden the question to people becoming zombies initially on either of those two medications.
