What should I do about my medicine? Is 8mg risperdal too high?

used to take 5mg of risperdal (2mg in the morning, and 3mg at night). This morning I took the regular 2mg dose, and called my doc with problems, he told me to increase the dose to 6mg, but the thing is he said to take all 6mg at night so I can sleep. Now if I take the 6mg at night, I would already have the 2mg in me from this morning. So my dose for the day would be 8mg when I only need 6mg. So how do I do this so I can still listen to my doctor, get a good nights sleep, and be able to focus in class tomorrow. What dose should I take tonight? I'm so confused, my doc's office is closed do to the weather. So I can't call.
Thanks !
