Hi people

My p-doc (the one on maternity leave) told me that I didn't need any anti-psychotic for my borderline personality disorder paranoia. She told me I need therapy.

Anyways, I've been having lots of crises over the spring and summer. I saw my pdoc's replacement and he gave me a prescription for 0.5 mg of Risperdal. I don't know if it is a good idea to take it. It sounds like a pretty serious drug.

I'm also on 50 mg of Celexa. I never know if it does anything for me. I've been on it for about 7 months now. Anyways, now I just want to take Risperdal 'cause it sounds like it might be fun to experiment with. I don't really care if it harms me.

I don't know what to do. I just don't know if my symptoms are severe enough to warrant use of Risperdal.

How do I know if my symptoms are severe? How do I tell the difference between real psychosis and pseudopsychosis?
