> Right now I take 60 mg Prozac when I wake up (which can be any of the 24 hours in a day lol), 0.75 mg Risperdal, 20 mg Celexa, a multivitamin, fish oil, vitamin D and calcium when I go to bed (which can also be any of the 24 hours lol).

A synergistic interaction is a condition where the mechanisms of actions of two different drugs produces an amplified effect that is greater than simply being additive. An example would be the hypotensive effect of combining Risperdal with propranolol (NE alpha-1 blockade and NE beta blockade respectively). You may want to consider either reducing your usage of propranolol or perhaps switching from Risperdal to another AP. Seroquel might be better for anxiety.
