God forbid symptoms and conditions

While on Effexor XR: aggressive disposition

Withdrawals: severe dizziness, vivid and unpleasant dreams, sometimes nightmares which were unrelated to anything going on in my life. The dizziness was the worst. I sometimes felt as though I was seeing double, and could barely walk straight if I hadn't taken my high 300 mg dose in one or two days. God forbid I lose a bottle of pills or have insurance company complications.

I gained 40 pounds on risperdal, but I could use it anyway since I was 6'0" and 140 pounds. I now weigh about 180.
Risperdal combined with zyprexa has worked 'eh' for psychosis. Some days it works, other days it does not. The worst side effect I have had yet from risperdal is sore nipples of all things. They are extremely sensitive to even putting a shirt on and god forbid I bang them, I go right through the roof. I can't wait to see my Pdoc, because I really want to get off risperdal.
