> The appointment went well. It was only 10 mins though because pdoc had to fit me into a busy day. Pdoc said it was important to not change my meds without discussing it with her first. She said we can decrease the Risperdal, but that we would have to taper. I didn't taper properly and that's why I relapsed.

>Ten minutes? That is not a lot of time. I usually spend about 45 minutes with my pdoc. Did she tell you how to taper the Risperdal, or is that for another time? Personally I think changing meds just as you start a new job is a bad idea. I know the Risperdal make you sleepy, but it you can overcome it, then I would stay at the dosage you are at.
