Anxiety through the roof right now URGENT!
Hello, I'm a 20 year old female, and I have been diagnosed with REALLY bad anxiety and not to mention depression and OCD. My doctor has put me on three medications (something bad happen to me) anyways they Luvox 100mg for OCD once a day, Xanax half a pill of a .5 3x a day, and Risperdal 1mg at night. I'm really scared of the affect of the Risperdal. It's keeps me very calm, which I like, but at the same time the side affect are really nerve recking. IDK what to do... I'm scared of taking this one pill now, even though it's helping me, greatly. Should I tell my psychiatrist that I want to change it to something else, or still be on I've taken this med for about a month now. Please help thanks!

I tried respiridol once bc my doc said it might help me. NOT. All it did was make me feel weird. I complained to my doc right away and he took me off it and replaced it with something that was much milder, and that worked out. - Blu
Thanks, for the response for me it works and I don't have any side effects which is good I talked to my therapist and she said as soon as I get any wierd effect to let her know and she'll change it. I've been on it for a month and half.
She said she would lower all the dosages, when she see's improvement, please help I'm really nervous!
