[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 158101"] I was on risperdal .5mg at night for a short while when I had severe depression. I was told at that dose it helps with irritability and impulse control, which it did. However, it did make me feel very 'weird' - which is how I would explain it if I were a child. It made me very fuzzy - caused cognitive issues. I would call a friend and tell her that I have to go to the post office, bank and grocery store. Then I would call her when I got back and she would make sure I made it to all those places. Usually I had forgotten at least one. I would forget what I was talking about mid-sentence. Ok. I do that now. But, this was 2002 - years before the health and cognitive issues I have now. This was completely unusual for me. It also caused nightmares that were very vivid. It was bad enough for me that I stopped taking it and only took it PRN when I could feel the extreme irritability coming on. [/QUOTE]
