Hi Dinah,
thank you so much for your welcome, and for sharing with me...
it means so much -
i am still feeling a bit lost around here :o) not sure where to post, etc. But I'll find my way--
Thank you for your welcome..
i am feeling really on the edge without my T and i still don't know for sure when i'll be seeing her again...she's been away since Dec 20th...
i am barely hanging on here.
i am seeing my psychiatrist on monday so i am holding on to that--i am not sure the effects of the Remeron and the other one...i've been taking Remeron for a little over a month..and it does help me sleep--
the risperidone -i still dont know what effects it has on me....what is it that you don't like?
i feel that it numbs me maybe too much at times but then at other times i feel a mess again...--
and i've been experiencing some things which scared me and it even makes me ashamed to talk about them...and i am not sure if they're because of the medication or they have nothing to do..
i guess i just wanted to share and see if others were finding it helpful...
thank you for sharing with me :o)
i still feel a little shy to share and post..
glad to be here though.
i've been feeling too alone inside..thanks again.
Birdie.
