Eric, I don't know who you are or if your're a doc but it's amazing bc my pdoc just told me 1) raise lithium to 900 mg 2) raise risperdal to 2 mg) and 3) lower wellbutrin to 150 mg. all things you suggested! thank you!

If raising the Risperdal doesn't help, a change to another antipsychotic may be warranted.
