> I'm taking it for OCD, but I'm thinking my doctor might be thinking I'm borderline bi-polar. Have you taken either geodon or risperdal?
I have taken and am currently taking Risperdal. Never took Geodon. Did those not work for you or were the side effects too bad?
> I'm starting it today at 50mg for 3 days, then 100mg for 3 days, then 200mg every day after that. Does that sound right?That sounds about right. I don't really know anything about it's use for OCD. What bipolar-type symptoms do you have? It's possible that even a dose lower than 200 might help, but I think that the dose range for S is so huge, there is just no way to know how much any particular person might need. You just have to see how you feel at each dose.
I'm trying to tweak things with Seroquel and Risperdal. I really need something to calm my agitation. I can't take a high enough dose of S because it makes me too tired. But now Risperdal seems to be making me feel drugged too, so I don't know what to do.
