How long until my olanzapine withdrawal subsides?

Please see a psychiatrist as soon as possible. Anti-psychotic withdrawals are extremely dangerous. I think the tapering you did was too fast. But do get off of that drug while you can. I was on risperidone for ten years, and now it is literally impossible for me to stop taking the drug because the withdrawals will probably kill me. Risperidone is an anticholinergic, and it suppresses dopamine. I assume olanzapine is similar. So, if you stop taking it, you can have a cholinergic rebound AND a dopamine rebound, which will literally make you go insane. I know psychiatrists are terrible and everything, but a psychiatrist can safely titrate you off of that drug.
