Hi GG.
> Does Zyprexa only trigger mania in BP patients, or are unipolar patients susceptible as well?
That's a great question for which I have no answer. Well, almost no answer. The research team at the NIH who worked with me diagnosed me as bipolar because I had had several manic reactions to antidepressant drugs. I have never had a spontaneous manic episode.
The insomnia might be important. Do you have a reduced need for sleep? Do you feel energetic, despite not getting more than 3-4 hours of sleep?
