I am semi functional on risperidone

I still can’t work but I’m able to do other things.

Without risperidone I’m not able to take care of my dad and pets among other tasks

You know that it’s more rule than the exception that we with our condition are on at least 5 psychotropics. Me myself am on 3 (a long acting and Seroquel and akineton).

Is suffer the side effect of metabolic syndrome caused by Seroquel.

That’s a very high dose. The maximum dose my body could handle was 5mg before I got nose bleeds.

Very high dose, indeed.

I couldn’t speak. So sedated
