[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 490983, member: 11791"] Depends. If their internal motor is reving way too high, Risperidal can "slow them down" enough that it is [I]possible[/I] to think before they act... however, they still need to [I]learn[/I] to use that window of opportunity. So... without the medication, there may not be any way to learn impulse control. But the medication itself won't provide impulse control - only the opportunity to learn it. Does that make sense?
