Beautiful work you are doing !!!!!! Thank you!
I have ADHD so telling me to like the video if it was helpful is a good reminder! Thanks!
I have been taking this medicine, Risperidone, for 10 years, half a pill before bed. I suffer from psychosis and auditory hallucinations. After taking it, I feel sleepy. This medicine eliminates headaches or migraines, but it has always caused me to feel bored and lack a sense of the value of the day. I want it to end. Because it caused me some depression, where I became aimless, and I didn't want to do anything
What dosage are you taking
How are you now, are you still on It or they change your medication?
I just recently came off Rispridone , it made me gain the side effect of scrotal swelling! It was not painful but as soon as I reported this to my doctor I was told to discontinue taking the medication and the swelling went down in a couple of days back to a normal size.
I have never heard of so many side effects these meds have more negatives than positives. It shouldn't be on the market
What's even better is my parents found a psychiatrist handing this prescription out like Tic-tacs for my "ADHD, uncontrollable aggression, hyper reactivity, constant paranoia, hallucinations, and psychotic delusions."
Turns out being hyper vigilant, volatile in temperament, being comfortable with violence, hypersensitive to your environment, always looking for a threat, and "making up stories" about your abusive parents causing the marks they claim is self harm are all OBVIOUS symptoms of extreme abuse.
So, you know, pump this stuff into them to zombify them, turns all their danger sensors off, and grog them up enough to stop having the will to resist and you're golden! Bonus: If the kid "acts up" in public because they know it's the only place they can contest you and not get obviously abused emotionally, verbally, psychologically, and physically, you can just claim they're "adjusting to medication" or something.
Same my parents found a psychiatrist who handed it out like candy. For my ocd I refused it so they foced a feeding tube in me just to put it in they do not care about my choice and it makes you groggy and tired and not yourself it does anything but helps I honestly wish I knew law so I could not have it forced
I mean it makes me feel stiff in my bones when i get up (3x 1mg a day) but it really takes away the sharp edges of frustration which makes the psyhical side-effect worth it.
Thank you so much Doctor!
You're welcome 😊
Very safe space video and informative
Thank you so very much!
Great work. Thank you
Thank you for watching.
You neglected to mention the sexual side effects. It highly affects sex drive and can cause erectile dysfunction and inability to climax.
Sorry for my bad English.
I was a HEAVY marijuana smoker on my teenage years, I quit smoking Marijuana 2 years ago and I wasnt able to sleep at night because of psycosis, I have been taking 1 mg of Risperdal per day for about a year now, and the psycosis that I had all day has been quite less but I am able to sleep at night and thats what I was looking for!!
Saluts from Honduras!
It feels like you gloss over some of the damgerous effects and even some lesser ones. We dont have med degrees so we domt understamd the jargon. I have been taking risperidone and clopixol 2mg per day. So far only a little fatigue.
Thanks for your video
Risperidone and cbt has helped me but not completely I still get quite unwell at times I have diagnosed ocd and personality disorder and when I'm at my worst also hear voices everyday is a battle
I took Risperdal about 20 years ago. My hands wouldn't stop moving. I talked to my psychiatrist and he asked me if I felt "agitated". Agitated and my hands moving didn't quite make sense at the time. Agitated makes me think if being angry or irritated with someone. Not hands moving. Anyway, I switched to Zyprexa and no issues.
Dosage?
Tardive dyskinesia, I'm guessing. It's a well-known side effect of this medication.
I took Risperidone for 20 years...saved my life
Same, i dont know whats wrong with poeple. Never had any problem with it. I took it for for 17 years to help my tourette syndrome rages irritability and emotions and it just helps me everyday
@@charles-etiennemarcoux5102Yeah it’s helped my autistic son loads. When he hit puberty he started having screaming outbursts then getting violent and destructive there was no reasoning or behavioural strategy’s that would prevent or stop it happening. We tried the Ablify first but that didn’t really do much to help so we switched to Risperidone and he was like a different boy within a few weeks very happy non aggressive you wouldn’t think he was the same boy. All very complex though isn’t it Autism, really it’s a lazy word for a possibility of many other complex diagnosis so one size won’t fit all. From experience as a parent that would be my criticism of health care professionals who label it as just Autism and don’t look or test no further for the specific root cause.
it will cost you later on in life when the brain shrinks.
@@stadiumarcadium2351 Its worst to have a rampant schizophrenia with oxidative stress and all the bad things.
I've been on Risperdone for 2 months, and it's already made me gain 20 pounds, given me tardive dyskinesia (I spent about 6 hours grinding my teeth yesterday), and damaged my liver. It also isn't helping me whatsoever.
Thank you. you helped me understand clearly
I have headache and insomnia after take risperidone for a year, will the side effects go a way after I stop taking it or is it permanent ?
I was prescribed risperidone for OCD and GAD, it helped me gain more control over my conditions but CBT and Escitalopram actually brought it into remission!
Glad to hear you found a combination of medications that worked for you!
Does it really help with anxiety and insomnia?
@@FlakoeOG310CPT impulse control compulsive control try benztropine and risperidone together
What is the drug risperidone used for?
Risperidone is used to treat schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or irritability associated with autistic disorder. This medicine should not be used to treat behavioral problems in older adults who have dementia✍️
Mam Flunil 40mg and risp 1mg can be taken? doctor prescribed
I was prescribed resperidol after being misunderstood in the hospital after an accident and my family made me take it until I refused to take it after 1 month. It’s been 2 years since then. Never needed it. Annoyed as hell about it. Not at my family but the hospital. I’m not an aggressive person at all yet the hospital for some reason was worried about me hurting people or were hesitant to give me anything as they would say “your not gonna throw anything are you?” “Your not gonna break anything are you?”. I’ve never even been in a fight. Completely ridiculous. Makes me sad man. Like how could they just completely mess me up like this and force me to take these things. They even gave me a shot for schizophrenia that would be taken every 6 months. Only had that once. Never did it again. Only did it cuz they were basically forcing me by telling me a judge in court would make me take it which I should’ve went through the process of disputing but I was told to trust the doctors by my idiotic family like I don’t know my own self and that what they were saying about me wasn’t true and they had me completely twisted. Especially because I hadn’t seen my family in at least 6 months because I was living my best life and then was forced into their care. I’m happy they took me in because I wouldn’t be able to pay bills and take care of my immobile needs tho. Anyways I’m still dealing with that injury which I have to go for surgery again soon so I was just thinking about the traumatizing experience and was curious if that pill had irreversible damage cuz I plan to be back to my happy and intellectually efficient self before the accident. Also W background music lol so not what I expect from a vid like this haha.
I 😅think I am going. Through the same thing
but I could not be😢 be released from hospitals unless I took it
That stuff was given to me after being attacked several times. It took my memory
Thank you
You're welcome.
My doctor prescribed 3mg of Risperidone for the mania phase, he asked me to take it at night, I took it yesterday, but I'm feeling very dizzy, empty head, sedation, stuffy nose, I can't even stand up straight, it was the worst medication I've ever used , antipsychotics are not enough for me, I don't know why he gave me this medication, which is strong, if I had known I wouldn't have taken it and I would have told the doctor about it. I'm thinking he started on too high a dose, which is why I'm so bad with the side effects.
Discuss these effects with your provider, but sounds like you were started on too high a dose.
@@LevelheadedMind ill relate to change de medication
just dont take any more that sheet of medicaments because the esquizofrenia not exist its a lay
My doctor tried to start me off with 2mg and it made me sleep during the day and increased appetite. I had to advocate for myself strongly to get the dose reduced. This drug also slows down your sex drive.
Is it ok to take 'Risperidone' with 'Sertraline' ? Yes or No please
I'm diagnosed with GAD and MDD, doctor prescribed me Sertraline ( currently on 75mg) and Risperidone (currently on 1mg). I think it helps immensely with my situation.
I was taking Risperidone for only two months when I began losing my hair. So I stopped taking it and will never take it again. I'm 72 years old though.
I was giving the shot and the pills, it just made my chest bigger, and made me sleep all the time
Same for my daughter
Are you male 😞😔 or female 😊🎉❤💕🥰 😂😂😂??
Suggestion for your next presentation: "Which nutritional deficiencies can express as mental/psychiactric conditions"?
Great topic! Thanks 😊
I tried Risperadal again but half of my back teeth broke out and I had to get surgery.
Maam iam suffer self harm thoughts self harm thoughts best medicine risperidone body effect how much time
I have schizophrenia for 3 years and I was prescribed with Risperidone 1mg today by my psychiatrist. After reading the comments I’m scared to take it. But I will take it tonight and see how it goes.
Don't take it. I'm on respiridone it has destroyed my life.
@@lilshanghai4697 What dosage were you on and how long have you taken it for?
It gave me breasts bro im pissed i have titties as a man wtf
How did it go?
On risperidone you can get side effects that you only get at the start. I had problems and so tried Olanzapine but gained a lot of weight. I went back on risperidone and didn't have the effects I had before on it. One of the good things about risperidone is that it really helped me sleep.
Twas the opposite for me. I gained a TON of weight on Risperdal.
I still gained weight over time but not as dramatically as on olanzapine@@LibraryofSofiyah
Please doctor, how can someone with non-epileptic seizures stop the side effect of Risperidone?
Benadryl
Mama plz reply im taking risperdone 2 mg lexapro 20 but from risperdone i have lot of sedation someolance im taking it for ocd thoughts what dose of risperdone is effective for intrusive thoughts should i decrease im not in touch with my doc due to some problems so plz kindly u help
stop taking the meds
Thank you for the information. I wonder if Risperdone will help for severe mentally chalenged adult, he is very destructive, always breaking things, makes weird noises and destroys even his bedding and his clothes. He destroyd everything that was precious to me. He was 2 years old and normal, then something changed, epileptic seizures and out of control. He was diagnosed with lowest functioning autism, but I suspect he is brain damaged. He will be the end of me, the other day I had a total mental breakdown, was in coma for 3 days, I suspect he triggered this. Sometimes I feel that he is demon possessed. Any help will be highly appreciated 🙏🤷
Negative-acting skizotypal disorder. That’s what it sounds like
Praying for you "NOW"
Please help me out, is this drug used to treat mood disorder? cause that was what I was diagnosed with yet I was using this drug for 6 months, I don't even want to start mentioning side effects.
Yes, it can be used to treat mood disorders. Discuss your concerns of side effects with your provider.
@@LevelheadedMind Thank you
Can 0.5mg a day cause these terrible side effects?😢
, VERY DANGEROUS DRUG WITH VERY DANGEROUS SIDE EFFECTS
The video is very informative, but get rid of the repetative music. During parts 5-6 the descriptive med jargon loses the layman. That aside, 👍
The Rx was given to elderly, 90+ female w sudden onset dementia after (in hindsight) a psychotic break caused by combination emotional, biological factors, w prior slow onset ocd symptons. Rx Reaction time was within 2 days w minor dose after several other meds were attempted w negative outcomes. The patient has been stable for a month w no complaints that weren't present 6 mos prior.
Thank you.
Any videos on Perseris?
6 months on Risperfal and I went from a dude with a 6 pack to "she's having twins!" and stopped that med fast.
Yeah there's way better antipsychotics out there nowadays, in this day and age risperdal is just as outdated as haldol in my opinion.
Me too
@@Some-random-ScythianNot just outd8d; DEADLY ALSO!!!!!
Are d2 receptor antagonism and all side effects reversible?
d2 receptors upregulate(increase in number) after long term usage of antipsychotic medication. It can take months to years before they come to baseline level again.
@@catmando268 upregulate? White antipsicotics you can only have a deve essere in number!
It has a class act lawsuit for causing breast in men
Thank God my Mom is religious, my hormones where like a 11yr a 7yr it only got worse, now We know what We know. We can get our lives back to normal.
Does it do that in females too?
This medicine gave me extreme tiredness and blocked my nose
Thanks for sharing your experience.
Also this medicine for me
Doctor, how does rispiridone cause bone loss in patients with normal prolactine levels? I was looking it up and see that osteoclast has D2 receptor for dopamine, which inibhis The osteoclast differenciation resulting in bone loss. If rispiridone is a antagonist for receptor dopamine, then how does it cause bone loss? I was googling about this and thought it was because of rispiridone antagonists serotonine receptors, which controls The release of dopamine. Is that right?
I'm not sure how it causes bone loss? Didn't know that was a potential side effect. Thanks for the information though, I'll have to research this topic further.
@@LevelheadedMind i found it in this article:

i was forced to take risperdal then went on to have 4 shots of paliperidone. i had my last one was feburary, i didnt have schizophrenia or anything, i was in hospital due my eating disorder. i am worried its done permanent brain damage. i have severe anhedonia, lack of motivation , slow thinking cant concentrate and imsomia. its now june and no improvement, i have no dopamine or serotonin . i am doomed and going to be like this forever
im so sorry those doctors did that to you, but if you think its devastated you that much, you could sue. i just wish whatever doctors prescribed worked like magic. i have a form of schizophrenia, and even my risperdal has barely helped after the first couple weeks.
Sue them
Try to take abilify
Yes
It's a shit dangerous DRUG.
It's a CASTRATION DRUG
Was forced to take this in the hospital i told the doctor i could not sleep and they STILL KEPT ME ON IT FOR 3 NIGHTS I FELT HORRIBLE AND HAD THEEEE WORST NIGHTMARE OF MY LIFE. I NOW FEEL I HAVE A CONCEPT OF HELL
Would Risperdal and Prozac be an effective combination for depression?
Would not recommend taking Risperdal unless you absolutely have to.
Why?@@Hollyucinogen
@zrtknl I'm currently on it for depression and anger caused by severe abuse, and in the month that I've been taking it, I have:
1. Started having uncontrollable muscle movements called tardive dyskinesia (including my arms randomly twitching while I'm trying to eat, sleep, and write), and my jaw grinding for about 12 hours a day, including when I'm trying to eat and sleep.
2. It has damaged my liver. I can actually feel pain in my liver after I take it.
3. Put on about 10 pounds.
All of these side effects have only appeared in the last month that I've been taking it. I wouldn't recommend it unless you have schizophrenia or bipolar 1 disorder.
Is this drug recommended for meth-induced psychosis even when the meth use continues? If not, what is the "gold standard" anti-psychotic to treat meth-induced psychosis when active meth use continues?
This is exactly what I’m trying to figure out…
I'm fine with all of the side effects except increased mortality 😢
Made my life infinitely better I take it for Irritability with Autism spectrum disorder because without I can't control my emotions. It's the reason I'm able to not be in Jail for violent outbursts and what not.
Did you gain any weight
@destinywilson7761 Hi not really a ton I've now started taking it twice a day which is two mgs and I didn't really gain weight granted I take Ritalin twice a day so that's offsets same as Wellbutrin for my depression. My current weight is roughly 180lbs and I'm 6 4.
You forgot to mention excessive cigarette smoking
I have 3 bottles I thought I didn't need
The drug made me wanna kms when i was on it and i want the doctors to change it but they always refuse
It makes me have irrational thoughts of wanting to be in the void forever and thoughts that the world will never get better so i cant live in it
This medicine makes my stomach hurt and I get like blurred vision and I feel weird when I’m on it
I hope you can find another treatment that works better for you.
@@LevelheadedMindwhy do I talk slow ? When I’m on it
How to stop 0.5mg risperidone? Ì am taking half of 0.5mg ,trying to stop it
That’s nothing I’m on 8mg daily
I’m working for dementia patient. There is time like once in two week that patient goes crazy … shouting whole day and night , delusional and hearing voices . Doc had prescribed risperidone . Half mg. If I give her half mg whenever she goes through episode, will it cool down her immediately?
For psychosis the onset of action is typically seen within a couple of hours. That is if the patient will respond to that dose. Everyone is different and you won't know until you try it.
@@LevelheadedMind ok. Thank you.
Does this medication cause you to lose weight
Not likely. You can gain weight on it though.
This pill doesn’t work they forced me to take it and I had headaches and uncontrollable body movements
You are not alone they are forcing me to take it.
This is a life-ruining drug.
Any quack who prescribes Risperidone should un-alive themselves
As a nurse, dislike antipsychotics for many reasons, however if it helps you, awesome. Just remember drugs in this category for "some people" can cause them to become almost vegetables (see that in nursing homes).
They drug them up just to keep them quiet and compliant. I used to live in one, I've actually seen this with my own eyes.
Wdym by vegetables?
@@nora7372 "Vegetables" as in, technically physically alive, but has no meaningful existence or direct interaction with the world around them. They have no awareness of their surroundings, can't tell if they're hungry, in pain, tired, etc. People in a coma can feel those things, they just can't meaningfully respond to them. The technical medical term is "persistent vegetative state".
I used to live in a locked ward (all of the entrances and exits were locked and required a password) where almost everybody there had dementia except for me, and they would give the patients there anti-psychotics just to shut them up and make them more compliant and easy to deal with, even if they weren't actually psychotic.
I've also heard of anti-psychotics being prescribed to people with autism for the same reason. 😒
@@HollyucinogenYup; psych meds r essentially "chemical pacifiers" (i.e.: designed 2 silence u when getting abused, bullied, & harassed by others; especially "power-trippers"). As u can attest 2; it's NOT "treatment". It's PUNISHMENT!!!!!
I was perscribed this but im not gonna take it.... oh no no no
Me too

Any Doctor's giving out this Dangerous drug should be in jail
I'm glad you don't work in the justice system 💀💀

I have sexual dysfunction due to resperidon will it go away after am discontinued
For most people it does go away after stopping or changing medication.
@@LevelheadedMind ok but what if I am a male in child bearing age? Is there any alternative drug ?
If you're lucky.
It can be dangerous
@@julaingallimore7152"Can be"? No; it IS dangerous.
I don't know why doctor prescribed this medicine even told and show IMEGS that I captured by smartphone many rare pictures on the heaven's not even hallucinations 🤔 she shouldn't treat spiritual life that suffering from depression ok
Gave me acne, gained weight, stayed down and sad, and period missing
Sorry to hear I noticed that it is impossible to loss weight with
High dose?
@@MsPopo81 only got up to 2 mg! Now I’m on fluoxetine and abilify and feel much better :)
Yes I had acne and weight gain too but it really improved my mood swings and help me cry less. I got a lower dose and controlled my weight via fasting. My boobs also grew as it helped me to sleep better at night as well. And no psychosis for over a year!

Who cares about sex. Most medication have weight side effects
On these horrible pills
My Mom was prescribed this terrible drug when in her 80s. It made my Mom go filly. It should be banned. RSA
i was prescribed this along escitalopram. psych told me escitalopram is for depression symptoms and the risperidone for the problems I have sleeping. this was after the first session I had with her which lasted 15 minutes. I'm definitely getting a second opinion but what do you think? I find it weird that I dont find any off label uses for insomnia and that she didn't tell me what the medication is actually for. also I only tried benadryl for sleep which I developed a tolerance for, why would she try this medication first before usually prescribed insomnia medications
Dude, don't take that poison. Doctors hand it out like candy for off-label uses like depression, anxiety, insomnia, autism, etc., but the side-effects are f*cking terrible and life-ruining. Especially American doctors, a lot of them will just prescribe the most expensive drug possible, even if you don't actually need it. It's an atypical anti-psychotic, so it's supposed to be for people with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. 😒
