My OCD driving me crazy, my medication ruining my life. I feel tired the whole day, this is terrible.
Are you on antidepressants? Or an ap that addresses it?
I’m on Risperidone.
Oh true how is it? I’m actually thinking of starting risperidone
It makes me feel tired the whole day, it’s a heavy medication. I feel miserable, but don’t worry, I’ll be fine
How long have you been taking it?
I’m taking it since I was 12 years old.
You’ll make it through man
You’ve always been taking risperidone?
Yes, when I tried to quit something happened and you know… My mind is complicated.
I see I hope you’re doing okay man. Maybe you can talk to your doctor about lowering your dosage by like 1mg to lessen the depression
Yes, thank you. It’s always good to have someone to talk to, I’ve been feeling down lately, my OCD went out of control and I believe my phone got hacked.
It’s very hard for me to be in this situation, I don’t know what this guy wants from me, I never mess with anyone, I’m a good person. The only thing he does is to complicate a mentally ill guy’s life.
You probably need AD which helps with OCD too.
I’m on Prozac
Hey man it sounds like you may be suffering from some paranoia. I strongly believe that no one hacked your phone. You may just be having some health difficulties at the moment
Yes, I don’t agree. But nevermind, I just want some moments of peace in my life, I’m just a poor mentally ill man.
its alright brother, either way just dont let it get to you. You do sound depressed though so is there any way to address that?
Yes, thanks for worrying about me, having OCD is terrible, your mind never stops. Thanks bud
yea i understand man, i think i have it to a degree
I take risperidone, alittle restless, doesn’t control voices, a little not motivated, it controls other stuff better. some positives and negatives. paxil slows me down too. But I’m getting along OK.
@Alan96 do you have a lot of fears? a perfectionist? Find something else to absorb your attention, get really immersed in something so you can use some of that energy. It’s tough to know but if you are having a bad day, clean your house or something. Do the business of the day and write ortalk or paint or draw.
What dose do you take?
