Yeah, I've either had akathisia or weight gain from ALL the antipsychotics I've tried. I'm not on one now but if I ever get delusional again I would do risperdal and probably add on metformin. That is if my insurance would cover it, (they haven't in the past).
Risperdal at high doses gave me the lock jaw. The pdoc in the hospital prescribed benadryl for it. There is also congentin, and others u can try. I can't think of them now, man my memory is horrible either from the meds or the psychosis. It's so frustrating...
