Re: dopamine receptor sensitivity, TD, poop out?

Durring treatment of bipolar, I was taking 3mg Risperidal for 1week, 2mg for 2, and 1 for 1. In the third week at 3mg, I had difficulty breathing and stiffness of my legs.

When I went off the meds gradually I'd have bursts of energy and then feel like crap. I even developed some td symptoms, twitching eyebrows, and once hallucinated ON the medication.

I now have, even weeks after stopping, severe apathy and anhedonia, and I can barely think.

Could this have to do with upregulation of my dopamine receptors?
