Well, I've been back on the Risperdal about 3 weeks now, and I had begun to notice a TINY, tiny bit of improvement in how I was feeling. But this last week or so, I've been either bored or depressed (or both) enough to go to bed at some ridiculous hour, like 7:30 - 8 pm. I wake up at 6:30 a.m., barely in enough time to get to work, and I feel like I haven't slept in days -- absolutely exhausted and unrefreshed. The worst part of whatever this episode is has been the speeded-up feeling in my head that just makes me want to explode. It's the most uncomfortable I've ever been, and it slowly had been starting to settle down, and now it's back with a vengeance.

I see the pdoc again Feb. 14. I know meds take forever to work, but can anybody give me any hope, or am I just doomed to be batshite-crazy forever?
