Welcome, Hermi!

Oh, I am so, so sorry to hear that you have been put through this iatrogenic hell. It seems clear as day that you had an adverse reaction to the Sertraline, and tons of side effects from the Risperidone.

Am I understanding – you have been off the Sertraline since about August 2012?

Another way of looking at it is that you tolerated the Citalopram OK once, but the second time you took an SSRI, you got a kindling effect. Your system was sensitized to either that class of meds or to any neuro-active med. You might have had the same adverse reaction to any SSRI or psych med at that point.

I’m not an MD, but based on my years of experience hearing these stories in the online support forums, I would say that you have to stay away from any neuro-active meds from now on. Your system is sensitized.

It's possible that your PND also shows that you are very sensitive to hormone shifts. You have a fine-tuned system that needs to not be man-handled.

You *will* heal from the Sertraline and Risperidone. You just have to wait and keep doing all the things that gently support your health.

Please tell me how much Omega-3 you took and what happened when you took it.

What are your most troubling symptoms now? Maybe we can brainstorm some things to help.
