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 :slight_smile:

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.

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.
