17 Feb 2013 I thank God that Risperdal Consta depot shots changed my life for the better! All my delusions and bad voices are gone. My nurse gives me one intramuscular injection in my buttocks every 14 days. Injections are a better option than pills because i cannot lose a dose, and i am all these years in control.

12 Dec 2009 It really worked wonders for my mental state and helped me to gain control of my life. However, putting on 80 Lbs. in 2 years while on this was enough for me to discontinue it's use and try to find another solution. Still searching after 15 years of bipolar to find something that will make me feel normal...
