Just don't start taking them then stop. Follow the schedule the doctor told you once you start. I had a friend start rispiridone (along with some other stuff) and he started getting all paranoid and shit for awhile then it subsided once his brain got used to it. The way these drugs are supposed to work is long-term changing the levels of your neurotransmitters and receptors, not right away. No personal experience with it though.

I'm not so sure. I've been watching way too many youtube vids from keyword: "risperidone" or "risperdal" and I am even more traumatized now watching them portraying the experiences of others as they had endured for years of taking the medication. But they are fake, right? I should not believe things I see on the Internet. Doctors know what they are doing. There is no such thing as evilness or corruption. us dollar is good. bitcoin is bad. I have found you can find happiness in slavery.

But still, I know what I must do relative to my own rationality and competency that I strive to consistently maintain (besides the sarcasm as shown above). I trust myself. And especially I have a health journal for these very things that I fear, uncertainty of the health industry or the medical industry. I shall still continue to actively participate, but also I will still document things. As I arrive in Pittsburgh, I would like to begin the habit of voice recording all interactions with doctors and others and provide text transcripts of everything so that I can provide even more account of many important things and efforts that progress. There have been many key things that have been discussed between my therapist and myself that are forever lost in time. I would like to prevent that in the future.

Again, as much as this is a battle for myself, it's also a battle for everyone else that has similar health issues. I need more hit points to sustain this battle. Does anyone have any healing potions?

At least I keep telling myself that, ever since someone suggested to start a journal.
