<bot>: Hello, It appears as if your depression is not controlled adequately and due to this you are having psychotic symptoms in form of hallucination. However, as there is altered sense of smell- its better you rule out organicism by getting a brain scan (also as there is no response to risperidone). Till you get the scan your doctor can either raise the dose of risperidone or shift you to a new one-like: olanzapine etc. Along with these changes: the dose of mirtazapine is hiked in order to get control over depressive symptoms. Talk to your doctor about the above-mentioned points and proceed further. Wish you good luck and speedy recovery.
