I guess that part of my dilemma, is that off the risperdal I'm mostly fine. A bit anxious but not in turmoil.
Every couple of months I have a melt down that lasts about one week. Can't quite figure out if it's medical or psychological. During that time I'm pretty uncomfortable. So I sort of hate taking a drug always that I only need, what, 1 week in 10 maybe. 10% of the time.
I have been feeling unsettled lately but I think that was the therapy. Perhaps therapy won't be able to help much, and perhaps I would be better off comfortable on the Risperdal. I'm just not quite ready to give up yet. But then I think, that's not a good enough reason to give up something that works.
Round and round again. Sigh.
