Withdrawls

I called my pdoc this morning and he said I was having withdrawls from the Risperdal. I am telling you all now this is so bad. I can't stand it. I am having cold and hot sweats and shacking so bad. I am on the edge of crying all the time and crying frequently. The pdoc told me to take half of what I was taking for a week and then stop completely. I really hope this helps. I already took half a pill. I can't take too much more of this. This is making me not eat and I am throwing up fliuds that I drink. I never went through this before and I hope I never do again. Thanks for your support all...I appreciate it so much.

Tina,

Honey, I've only felt the way you're discribing once in my life and that was when I was in a treatment center. I never want to feel that way again. I hope this goes away soon. Love and {{{{{{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}}}}}}}}!

How much risperdal were you taking? I just got over a bad incident with some risperdal and I was taking 1 mg. Taking it f**ked me up, and now I still don't feel right?

Hey Kristen-

I was on 3mgs of Risperdal and the pdoc just took me off cold turkey. He needed to wean me off but didn't and now I am going through hell. Tonight I feel a little better but not much. Hopefully soon I'll be back to normal.
