I developed Parkinson-like symptoms. I moved ever so slowly (and I am normally a fast, energetic walker) and I thought that it was because of deep situational depression, but it was a side effect of Risperdal. It probably could have been managed with cogentin, but I opted for switching to Geodon instead, and Geodon works great (except for the orgasm thingie).

I also had horrible acne and in general very low energy. I was on disability at the time. I do not think I would be able to pull off work while being on Risperdal, but on Geodon, I can. Thanks Geodon.
Thanks for this!
