I wonder if AD's just do not work as well the second time around, my pdoc said no that is not true. What's you opinion?

Yes they do sometimes work on 2nd or 3d try.
If you are taking different meds each time, that
totally changes things, too.

As to the Risperdal (or any AP) used for nonpsychotic
conditions, I agree with Judy. Of anxiety, the benzo win over
the AP's for long term treatment. We know the long term effects
of benzos, we do not have long term data on the newer AP's.
AP's always carry a risk of perm. movement disorders.
