Okay, this is weird-
I feel very, painfully tired from the Risperdal, yet also have racing thoughts from it, and I can't sleep.
I'm taking it for social phobia. Klonopin works, but doc is trying to avoid it.
I entered the ER today about bugs crawling under my skin. Doc told me to see my dermatologist tomorrow to confirm things, but he said it can't be anything like lice because I have no marks. He was quick to ask if I've felt stressed lately. Um, try 19 years, but whatever.
So I guess thing is proof anxious types who go untreated really do get "sick" more often.
Anyway, the Klonopin never made me tired- if I was already tired but had racing thoughts, it would quell those so I could sleep, but it never made me tired. If anything, it energized me. I might have bipolar. Um, yeah, so I bet I'll call my pdoc tomorrow and he'll give another one of his "umphs that's odd." I'm like, "geez, umphs don't treat me, doc" in my head...
