It appears that you are being treated for bipolar depression. Bipolar is of two types: bipolar 1 and 2. Bipolar 1 is sometimes plagued by psychotic behavior.

It appears that by nature or due to certain disturnances he may be showing depression and mental agitation. Instead of some tranquilisers, he should be taken to an experienced psychiatrist for consultation urgently. If advised he may need comprehensive management requiring even hospitalisation and treatment under direct supervision.

Dear Lybrate-User,
tolaz la will not be accidentally injected. It was injected with some purpose. May be that you are not aware of your psychiatric illness. May be you are justifying your behaviour to others nagging. Tolaz la will be in your body maximum for 4 weeks only. If you don't get injected again, it will disappear from your body. But you should take regular tablets prescribed by the psychiatrist by yourselves showing it to your mom or dad daily. That is the way to avoid injections in...more

Olanzapine is not safe to be given during lactation. You either change the medicine or shift the child to formulae feed. It will be good for child.

Dear lybrate-user,
I am not sure that you have followed up with your doctor recently. You seem to be on a low dose of Olanzapine. Probably you may need a mood stabiliser (if you are diagnosed as Schizoaffective Disorder) or an antidepressant in addition. Please consult your psychiatrist. You might get help to get out of depression like how you got out of occipital pain.
