Re: risperidone?... seriously?!

Thanks for that, I feel a little better. I do have sleeping problems and have been taking Ambien just as long as the antidepressants. He said he doesn't want me to have my sleep depend on a pill but right now would rather have me take it than not sleep. Honestly, I'd rather be hooked on Ambien than risperidone. I'm seeing him again on monday, so we'll see how that goes. By the way, did you gain weight while taking it? I know it's one of the side effects and that alone makes me not want to take it. I know that's shallow but I worked really hard to loose weight (by eating healthy and exercising) and I'm at a point where I feel comfortable. Gaining weight right now would not help lift my mood -_-
