Hi, all. I began taking 2 mg risperidone 11 days ago without titration to assist in a delusional disorder as well as OCD alongside fluvoxamine 300 mg, lamictal 200 mg, ativan 2 mg, vyvanse 80 mg. I have noticed some improvement in the areas it was intended to treat but, especially the past few days, I've had increasing difficulty in locating words, remembering the meaning of words, spelling, remembering songs and names, all words, songs and names that I've forgotten are quite familiar to me, as well. I don't see the pdoc until Friday and it's not causing a great deal of anxiety but it's severe enough that it's interfering with the few activities I engage in outside of the home. So, I'm wondering if it's worth trying a lower dosage in the meantime to see if this has less of a cognitive effect even, perhaps, at the expense of some of the intended effect. Or will this cognitive impairment pass? It's worth mentioning that the initial sedation that I experienced on the med has largely passed, so it's unlikely to be the source of the impairment. Thanks, all!
