On this past Wed., I dropped from 5 to 4 mg of Risperidone / daily. And I feel horrible. I feel like I'm going through alcohol withdrawal - shaking, light headed, dizzy, and super anxious.

And it's making my brain want alcohol to take the edge off, which is not something I will even entertain. I'm in recovery from alcohol addiction and I can't go back to that.

I'm keeping active, and drinking calming herbal tea, but seriously this sucks and I just want it to be over with.

I'm hoping I'll start feeling better within a day or 2.
