Hey guys, my doctor put me on Risperdal about 3 months ago. He monitored me to see if it was effective or not. It did not seem to have any positive effect and only had bad side effects (like gaining 35lbs.). After being on it for 2 and a half months, my doctor told me to stop taking it. Ever since stopping the Risperdal I have had nothing but weird things going on, now into my 3rd week of pure annoyance. I've been in contact with my doctor and he has been no help.

This is what is going on:
complete insomnia for first 6 full days (now can sleep, for the most part)
dizzy
sweating out of nowhere
freezing out of nowhere
balance problems
light headed
stomach/gastro intestinal problems
constantly exhausted and just need to lay down
twitching

So that is what is going on and none of that exhisted before taking Risperdal, only started when I was told to discontinue Risperdal. Any ideas? My doctor is of no help.
