Skin cream can be allergenic?

Islajack — Thu, 22 Apr 2021 09:09:27 +0000

I used much skin cream, and always my skin looks allergenic and gonna red, maybe it's just because of inferior quality skin cream, and I don't know about what I have to use on my skin to stay smooth, I saw some women's mostly using skinny tan and talk about their good quality, but I am not sure, and I searched about it, I found it on Skinny Tan discount codes, do anyone knows about that product?

Week 4 off of risperidone

Lawlove — Wed, 27 Jan 2021 23:48:12 +0000

My husband has been off of risperidone for a month now I want to share a little bit about our experience so far:
the first week off he was fine, no withdrawal symptoms
the second week: withdrawal symptoms started- he had insomnia, delusions, depression, suicidal thoughts, obsession with having diabetes, lossed 20 lbs and quit his job.
week 3: the withdrawal symptoms continued but got to a point where I could talk to him about his delusions and help him realize they weren’t true. The end of week 3 we started to turn the curb and he a lot of the symptoms ceased, he’d wake up in the middle of the night and have a hard time going back to sleep because of negative thoughts here and there.
week 4: he’s 10 times better. He has some negative thoughts, really regrets but he’s no longer having delusional thinking, he’s sleeping through the night, he’s gained all his weight back, he works out daily, looking for a job, able to combat negative thinking. Hopefully things continue going good.

hes replaced medications with supplements: ashawagandha for cognitive improvement and relieving stress, taurine for stress relief and reducing delusional thinking, magnesium for nerve health, vitamin k and d, fish oil for improving mental health and at night most times he’s taking GABA to sleep.

Delusions

My husband tapered completely off risperidone two weeks ago. He now has delusions in the middle of the night. Is that normal? Or should I have him go back on the meds?

Coming off risperdal

cgrim3 — Fri, 24 Jul 2020 00:05:48 +0000

I'm currently trying to come off risperdal and need to set up a plan to do it. I was on 4mg and am now on 3 mg. I tried going down to 2mg after 5 days but I felt the withdrawal coming on so i went back up to 3mg. I've been taking the meds for about 2 months now. Any suggestions on how to wean myself off?

Thanks,

Chris

I need you help

Hello,

I want to stop taking Risperidon but don't know how to do it. First of all, I can't consult my psychiatrist because she said I just need to get over drinking it, but I really don't feel I need it. I started taking it two months ago when I willingly went to a hospital because I had troubles with alcohol and had huge panic attacks, they took me off my antidepressants and increased the doze of quetiapinum to 100mg/day, which I am fine with.

However, they also put me on 3mg Risperidon, which at that time I was in no shape to refuse. Risperidon makes me feel bad, I have huge amounts of saliva, absolutely no sex drive (which is a problem for me and my partner), and after taking it I have a stuffy nose up to the point where I can't breath. I don't have schizophrenia or anything alike, I had depression throughout my 20s but it seems to get better, otherwise I'm a regular person, although I do have anxiety issues, but I stopped taking alcohol and that looks to have more or less gone as well.

I read Risperidon has huge withdrawal symptoms and I would like to get off as smoothly as possible. Right now I'm taking 2mg/day and maybe you could help me to develop the tapering period plan? How often and by how much can I lower the dose of Risperidon to avoid huge withdrawal symptoms? I really need help on this one and any advise would be hugely appreciated, thank you very much in advance..

Risperdal taper going well

Hello all, I've been on risperdal 4 mg night for 2 years. I tapered down to 3 mg in may and it was hell, severe insomnia for 2 months, irritability, and moodiness were present the whole time. When my new dr in rehab wanted to take me down to 2 mg I was soooooo fearful. However it went well so well in fact I tapered down to 1 mg a week later! I'm going to do that for a month and taper down to .5 then to .25. I read a lot of horror stories about coming off these meds, am so grateful that it's going good. If you're coming off meds, be positive and cut yourself a break it may be very tolerable.

Fruit juice

I'm very thankful for chaya for offering this type of class to help for those on neurotoxins and their parents.

My wife likes to give our son apple juice only which she dilutes with water. what do you think about fruit juices? They seem to be high in sugar to me. any idea to use it or not? since our son is on Risperdol 3.5mg.
