I took risperidal years ago, but can't remember if I gained weight. Do all antipsychotics make you put on some pounds? I eat very healthy and adequate portions and exercise daily, but this really worries me as I'll probably be put on antipsychotics in a month or so.

Everyone I know who's on olanzapine had a massive weight gain. Same for risperidal. The only one I hear about people not necessarily gaining weight is quetiapine.
