Deneb, I worry it may destabilize you mentally to stop the Risperdal altogether and tremors are a common side effect of abrupt withdrawal anyway. A small reduction in addition of Risperdal to the Benadryl may help if it is the Risperdal that is causing this problem. I remember you posting elsewhere about excessive, involuntary blinking - that was you wasn't it? That in combination with the jerkiness and tremors is suggestive of some EPS though. Have you noticed (or has anyone else noticed) involunatry movements of your tongue or lack of facial expression?
If you've had this problem for a while then there could some other cause. For example, is your blood sugar healthy? Do the tremors improve after eating? A beta-blocker may also help with the tremors.
