Hello Friends, I'm on psychiatric hell for 15yrs. I'm on antipsychotic Medication and very hard to stop the drug I'm glad I found this peer group and hopefully I will learn and help myself in the process. Im on 3mg Risperdone and 025 cogentine. I'm on the process of changing Risperdone to ziprazedon. due to side effect. .
