Depression
"my experience with risperdal started when I first started seeing my psychiatrist for about a year now. I first started with 1 mg for two weeks and then started taking 2 mg for a month, and then three for another month before my doctor prescribed me 4 mg for a month which I didn&#039;t finish because it was intense for me and it made me really somnolent and overall sleepy all the time. my mom asked him to get me back on 3 mg which I&#039;ve been on for seven months now. the only flaw that this medication has is that it causes some severe weight gain, and I can&#039;t sleep without it. risperdal has initially helped with my bipolar depression, and has successfully put my racing thoughts to rest."
