I was on Nozinan 10mg at night for 4 weeks, but I didn't take it every night, so it was probably more like 2 or 3 weeks. I'm off the Risperdal now. I tried going back on 0.5mg a while agao just to see what would happen but within one dose I ended up having difficulty breathing ( a symptom I had at 3mg in the hospital ). I did feel a little better - closer to normal, as if it had alleviated some of the drug induced negative symptoms. I'm bipolar. I live in Canada.
One weird thing that happened while I was ON the medication, at 3mg of Risperdal, is I hallucinated. Also, while i was on the Risperdal, regardless of the dose, I felt normal, as I usually do. It's only after discontinuing that I got all of these negative withdrawal symptoms - including the missing arm swing. My arms were swinging on 3mg Risperdal.
