Since I started risperdal on 8/4/25 I’ve gained like 5+ pounds! You wouldn’t believe my bmi now even if I could post it!

That’s too bad. Some meds are just no good for weight gain. Sorry to hear you have a high bmi. That sucks for sure.

Well I’m not going to see doctor “now” anytime soon, but this is the heaviest I think I’ve ever been.

The problem is that last month I had a pulmonary embolism which made me EXHAUSTED so I slept a lot. That went on for a month. Then the clot went away and a couple weeks later I couldn’t sleep at all and was having psychosis pretty bad. Enter the risperdal. Now I’m sleeping just fine- not too much or to little but gained a few pounds.
