Careful with your meds, you're already on an upper and Risperdal is strong stuff. It may feel good now, I can tell you it feels great and only gets better. But just reading your words it hints that your not yourself. Enjoy it sure, but don't play with fire, don't try to get manic, please. You'll end up with a handful of regrets, in the hospital, jail, or having to take an even meaner drug than Risperdal or lamictal. Consider getting off the effexor. . .and either do the research or go see a professional. Be careful, mania may be fun, but it comes at a high price.
