That's not cool, especially if it didn't exist prior to starting risperdal. Micro doses or not, that is a disturbing development to me.

Well, actually I've been waking up scared for about a year now. It was just that it seemed to get worse the first few days on Risperdal. It's back to normal levels now. Which isn't pleasant but I guess it's bearable.I guess I could try Seroquel again but my pdoc seems to think Risperdal will enhance my AD.
It seems like not many people take Risperdal. Why is that?
Thanks,
