I can certainly empathize with your plight. I would not have remained so treatment refractory for bipolar depression had doctors not treated me in the wrong manner in 1990. I can't really blame them for malpractice, though. They were doing the best they could.I really can't add very much but to say that you have done a great job at persisting with your drug trials without giving up entirely. You must have some inner strength that keeps you going.
I will take this opportunity to reiterate:
I am sure that the combination of Seroquel and Risperdal can work magic in treating paranoid psychosis. I have seen this in person. Also, the dosage of Seroquel necessary for this combination to work is much lower than what is necessary without the Risperdal. My friend did very well at 3mg Risperdal + 100mg Seroquel. When she abandoned the Risperdal because of weight issues, she needed to increase the dosage of Seroquel to 800mg.
You never have tried this before.

Do you remember the dosage? 3mg is a moderate dosage.
How about Invega?

I'll keep thinking.
