Post Traumatic Stress Disorde
"I switched from seroquel to risperidone 6 months ago. I had gained 100lbs over 10 years on seroquel, and have lost about 20lbs so far since switching.
My constant rage and aggression are gone, it&#039;s great not to be furiously psychotic all day.
On the minus side I can&#039;t get enough sleep, I have no motivation or energy and depression has spiked. I may try an antidepressant along with risperidone and a smaller dose (I started on 2mg, just cut to 1.5 and would like to get to 1mg or under)
I tried going from 2mg to 1mg previously on my own and it was hell - massive anxiety and depression."
