Risperdal Akathisia

Developing the urge to move and experiencing a sense of edginess and hyper vigilance since increasing my risperidone dose to 4mg.
To be honest I was more alert and focused on the 3mg dose.
The reason why I increased the dose was due to stressful circumstances
Now that the stressor no longer exists I’m going back down to 31/2 mg for a couple of days until I reach 3mg again.
I’ll discuss with my pdoc on my next steps
I see her in one week
