Dual Diagnosis

by PaulK9378, May 21, 2009 12:52PM
Recently diagnosed as BPD/ADHD after years of being misdiagosed as depressed. They have me on Lithium 900 mg, Strattera 25 mg, both once a day and Risperdal 1 mg twice a day. Anyone have experience with this combination?

I have the same diagnoses,pre 1995 to date am taking 2000mgs depoket,30mgs Aderal (Adderall) cr,10mgs Aderal (Adderall) and ambian for sleep.Not that I dont still have my times.But all in all my quality of life has improved greatly. In the past lithium left me way to impaired and Risperdal developed bad headaches also nervice ticks movements uncontroleble shaking as med were increased to over come my disorder.    LOWJACK
