When I took risperdal I holucinated a lot, like on acid 24/7. When I stoped it and started zyprexa it all stoped, mostly. Probably is not the right med for your freind. Also I noticed that as therapy with meds went on over the many years my symptoms slowely eased. I was in bad shape in the beginning. 1 year in hospital off and on for 2 years. In between I worked full time with no problems. Then the next 2 years I would work fine except for the 4 month periods once a year that I went nuts and staying in the house with major anxiety, my thought got the better of me. After all that I was fine with meds and never missed a day of work, now in about 4 years. I'm religous about taking my meds now.
