I don't know what the heck was wrong with me last night, I wound up taking my risperidone twice. I wasn't trying to OD, I just forgot that I took it and took it again about 2 hours later. Bad move. Instead of my normal 4 mg, that meant I got 8 mg which is a really high dose.

I feel really awful today - headache, nausea, some light flashes in my vision, and feeling like my brain is fighting with itself. I called telehealth to make sure I didn't need to go to a hospital, and they said I'd be ok in 24 hrs.

But I am seriously never doing that again. I just went out and bought one of those pill organizer boxes, Meds are going in that from now on.
