Risperdal (risperidone) Bad ? Posted: 12-06-05 12:42pm


Hi, had a bad weekend and ended up being hospitaliszed (was obsessing, ranting about things that didnt make any sense, crying, laughing and had racing thoughts) the dr has now prescribed me respidal (starting at 1mg which I take at night) has anyone ever taken this medciation ? Is it used for bipolar ? And did u get really tired (i have been feeling very weak, but the dr said this feeling should pass) if im bipolar shouldnt I be on other medications too ?

Respirdal is an anti psychotic when I was a teenager they thought I had schizophrenia with mood disorders(when it was just hormonal imbalance at 14) the only thing I remeber is being fatigued all the time and that was it......
