I messaged my pdoc this morning and he responded this evening already. He is fine with me testing out both 3 mg and 4 mg or risperidone to see if I need a permanent increase to 4 mg or if I just needed a few days of it to get my brain back on track. I am so grateful he trusts me with decisions/ideas like this. He just wants to let me know how it goes/what my final decision is. So, I am going back to 3 mg for a few nights to see what happens. I really won't know exactly what I need until I return to work and am around people all day again though.
I didn't get out of bed until after 10 am today so I'm trying to figure out how to fill my time until I actually get tired since it's only a little after 7 pm here. Today, I was able to go grocery shopping, vacuum out my car, read, spend some time at Starbucks, and go for a walk. I still need to order some supplies for an activity my students will be doing the first week back to make sure they arrive on time. Otherwise, I'm not sure what I am going to do tonight.

Thank you, I will! I’m excited about it. It also gives me an opportunity to deal with my social anxiety

going in and asking about their free coffee thing for New Year’s Eve. I hope the med adjustments help.
Sounds like you had a productive day!
