“Well, my experience with risperidone has not been quite great, in fact, it's made life lifeless. I can't really feel my emotions right. My drive for doing basic things, like taking care of myself, is gone, and so is my sex drive. I am having a lot of trouble concentrating and thinking with this crazy mind fog that won't go away. I have to pee all the time now, and my #2 work is always so hard now. It is either most of the time constipation, or sometimes a runny explosion, never just normal stools anymore. When I eat, I sometimes feel like choking, so when that happens, I have to swallow another way. My vision is getting so blurry as well. I don't like going out, and I don't like phones now, too. Talking to people became really hard, too. A lot of the time, when I try to think of anything, it all comes out foggy, or I simply can't think a single thing, before, I never had this problem. I know this is used for some people who might actually need it, but I was misdiagnosed, I think, personally. I had a 'minor manic episode,' stress-induced.”
