hello. I'm new here. actually I used this site years ago to successfully get off oxycodone and then suboxone. I was on suboxone for about a year and had zero trouble coming off it.
I'm here today regarding risperdal. about a year ago i was put on this med for anxiety. since then a real doctor discovered that risperdal is actually causing my anxiety and depression. I began tapering off 1.5mg in October. going extremely slow...tapering 0.125mg per week or every 2 weeks. I got down to 0.25mg with pretty much zero problem or withdrawal. 2 days ago I dropped to 0.125mg and I'm doing ok, though I had some anxiety and trouble sleeping last night. I read a lot that many people do not have trouble coming off this. and I have had no trouble over the last few months. I'm in my head a bit now trying to finish off it. anyone that's been successful, it would be great to hear from. just need some encouragement to finish up. I'm also taking propranolol for an unrelated issue. that's the only prescription im on.
sorry I'm just looking for some encouragement to finish and get off this drug. I want off it badly!
