A horrible pill I took for anxiety when I was a young teenager. I was very skinny and very thin before I took this pill, I was a size 2 and very thin for my frame. Everyone always said I was too thin. A couple months after taking Risperdal I had gained 35 pounds. Horrible. This pill ruined my hot body for my teen years. If you are taking this pill you will experience rapid weight gain no matter what you do. I was lucky I was so skinny before taking it. It ruined my body for years. Years later I still have to do hours of treadmill every day, tons of exercising and dieting because it messed up my metabolism. Multiple hours of treadmill each day and skipping meals is what it took to lose the Risperdal weight. I was lied to by my doctor about the weight gain side effect because I was so skinny and so thin my doctor thought I didn't need to know. My doctor blatantly lied about the side effects. It took years to lose that weight and years later I have to continue the extreme exercise and dieting because of this. Risperdal ruined my teen years.
I went from being extremely thin and very skinny to gaining 35 pounds on Risperdal. I had to do lots of exercising and dieting to lose the weight years later.

Risperdal is an atypical anti-psychotic and anti-anxiety medication. It is often prescribed along with other medications. It's good for schizophrenia, anxiety, and also for irritability from autism spectrum (Propranolol works better for anxiety and irritability, but both probably work best). It reduces dopamine and serotonin. Adding an SSRI like Lexapro can help with depression. Sometimes more medications are needed, but they lower the dose of the other medications. Side effects of Risperdal include sleepiness and weight gain (though I didn't gain more than like 10 to 15 pounds and it's slowly in a year or two). Doses of 3mg to 4mg+ work for anxiety. Higher doses are for schizophrenia.
Timothy: I took 3mg of Risperdal a day and 20mg times 2 of Propranolol equaling 40mg for my anxiety and I feel relaxed. And I didn't gain as much weight as I thought I was going to.
Sam: I'm taking geodon for schizophrenia. I hate Risperdal! It makes you really fat.
Timothy: I didn't get too fat.
Sam: Lucky you.

A very well working highly potent medication with lots of risks and bad side affects. Personally, this medication has caused me panic disorder, and I have forgotten what it’s like to not be super scared and lightheaded.

An anti-psycotic agent that is used to treat schizophrenia and other mental disorders. Personally I hate this medication because of all the side effects. You have no sexual desire and you can't have an orgasm. Also, sometimes white liquid comes out of your nipples. Since I've started taking these pills, I have gained almost 30 pounds. I've tried quitting this drug multiple times and I can't because it's helped me eat.

n. large, vestigial breasts that develop after taking moderate to large doses of Risperdal or any other atypical antipsychotic (Zyprexa, Seroquel, Clozaril...) These breasts are formed by an increase in prolactin production by the mammaries and thus result in the breast enlargement regardless of diet, original bust size, and gender.
Mike: Dude, what's up with your boobs... I mean, dude, you've got boobs!
Dave: Oh yeah, my shrink gave me risperdal, 1 mg per day. These are my risperdal tits.

The feeling of ultimate power which accompanies the growth of vestigial breast in a man who has taken large doses of the anti-psychotic drug Risperdal
Hey James, can you dial it down a bit?
