13th Risperdal Update - Feeling Good

August 14, 2026··

Posted in:Risperdal (Risperidone)Success Stories

Feeling good. Been having bouts of nausea, gi upset, and appetite changes. Not a lot to report. Feeling fine mentally and emotionally. And mostly fine physically. Had an episode of nausea and vomiting yesterday afternoon. Not sure why, could've been the reduction, the heat, or the sandwich I ate didn't agree with me. I hate getting sick. Felt nauseous for half an hour or so beforehand. Felt okay afterwards. Anyway, just thought I'd keep this log up to date. Hope everyone else is doing okay.
