8th Risperdal Update - Feeling Fair
August 5, 2026··
taper update
Feeling fair. Been having bouts of GI upset.
I went down to 0.3mg of risperidone last night. Felt fine until about 9.30pm when I got very weak and dizzy. Had to sit down until it passed which took half an hour. Feel totally fine now. And I could have just been hungry. I don't want to fall into the trap of thinking everything is down to withdrawal.
So it's early days but going okay so far. I hope everyone else is improving, or else taking it easy and waiting for a better day.
