My psych. is slowly adding some meds to my list for my Bi Polar disorder. The first one I am going to be taking on is Risperdal. My aunt is on it because she is Skizophrenic(sp) and it makes her very quiet and very much like a zombie. She is obviously on a mixture of meds, but I was wondering if risperdal had this effect on anyone? How has this med made people feel after taking it and did anyone have any negative side effects? Im just interested. Im also OCD and obsessing about medication on the effects of my body is paralyzing sometimes. Please give me some hope!
Thank you!
