Risperidone Withdrawals

I am cutting down on my Risperidone ever so slowly.
Was on 4mg and now on 3.5mg going down to my target dose of 3mg in a few days.

Still feeling some withdrawal symptoms like irritability and edginess.

Hopefully these will go away in a few days.

Feeling a bit more motivated and my anhedonia was better this morning.

Listened to some music and took a shower.

That could mean your not supposed to cut your meds. That’s what happened to me when I cut my risperdone when I was on it

What are you implying?
That what I’m experiencing is not withdrawals?

Maybe.

When I went from 3mg risperdone to 2 mg risperdone I got symptomatic.

It’s tough to say. Everybody is different, ya know. I’m just throwing it out there.

I’m finally at my target dose of 3mg.
This would be the second day.

Woke up this morning feeling revved up and agitated.

Settling down a bit now.

But man felt as I drank 10 cups of coffee!
