I had a Manic episode awhile back and it is time to wean me off the antipsychotics and the episode is over and I am stable now. I am under a tremendous amount of stress and not sleeping well and we are weaning off the antipsychotics. I didn't mention the not sleeping well or the stress to the pdoc, I didn't think of it until later. I am on 4 mg of risperdal and 15 mg of abilify. she decreased the risperdal by 1 mg thursday. I had problems with paranoia and auditory hallucinations to the point i was scared. Can weaning off anitpsychotics cause this? Or do you think it is stress and sleep related or both? I appreciate you input.
Thank you very much
