well that absolutely sounds just like me sad to say. I've done so much research on bipolar 2 though and while I've seen these symptoms as bipolar 2 I've also seen the other ones as part of it so maybe I just have half bipolar 2 like 2.5 or 1.5 or something werid like that.
The reason I am afraid to go back on Risperdal is because of the seizure risk. I've had seizures before but from strobe light thingys and so I know my threshold is already lowered from that and that Risperdal would lower it even more and that terrifies me! I don't want to risk having one and I would be so afraid to go out like I do now for fear of my threshold being lowered I would always be paranoid.
I've been off it for about 6/7 days now and I can feel a mean ole return of my symptoms and I hate it I absolutely hate it. I've been working on bills today and so frustrated with me where as I was just going through the motions of it all on Risperdal undaunted by problems that came up with them or anything for that matter. I still got flustered of course at things but was able to walk away but I don't know why off the meds I cannot walk away instead I fight it till I get it done and that is when the phones start flying lol seriously though...
