ve tried first perphenazine (4 weeks), then thiothixene (six weeks), but they were too sedating and I was having a problem working. And even sedated I started having more and more
warning signs that my mania was returning. About a week ago, I started taking Risperidone after a two week break to clear out the thiothixene. During that two week cleansing, I was getting more and more manic, but still manageable. Now after a week of Risperidone, I'm completely wide open and out of control.
