I'm glad it helped.

I just remembered that I really do lose it sometimes...like that time I wanted to get back at Dr. Bob by hanging myself because I thought he was killing people here on Babble by blocking them and it was up to me to save everyone by sacrificing myself. Geez, that was pretty crazy. I can't believe I actually bought a rope and wrote a suicide note explaining my motives. I just want to prevent stuff like that from happening. Would Risperdal help me with that?

Yes, that's what the Risperdal is for -- to help you avoid that sort of thinking. Remember: while you came out of it this time, you did go farther than just thinking about doing something. You took steps to do it. That's very, very dangerous, since you could follow through next time.
I think it's important that you find a medication that can control these thoughts, and it's worth giving Risperdal a good chance, since you really haven't had much trouble with it. You can live with a stuffy nose for a while, right? ;-) The other medications might be worse, so give this one a good chance.
It might help you with the civility issues, too, and help you remember to check in with a civility buddy before posting things that might be a bit, well, you know... That would be good, right? Besides, it can't be fun to realize that you've been thinking such things, right? Give the Risperdal a good chance to show its true colors, just like you promised yourself when you started taking it.
Good luck.
