hi standstill,
i was put on risperdal one year ago because i was experiencing fragmentation and dissociation (feeling like your thoughts and emotions are all fragmented and chopped up inside). I feel like it saved my life. i moved around to different doseages and have finally settled on .5 broken into 2 doses a day. it comes with a price. i feel much more lethargic, weak, weight gain, a feeling of being dumber, not as quick or alert etc. i wish i could stop it but everytime i try, the original symptoms reappear.
