Risperdal is so knowned for weight gain I was on it for 2 months and gained 14lbs totally went off of it.

Hi @A MyDepressionTeam Member I was on Risperdal for a little less than a year. I hated that drug. I did gain weight, but most of my meds make me gain. The worst thing about Risperdal, which happened to me, is gynecomastia. It is swelling of the breasts. It is getting a lot of attention lately for class action lawsuits for MEN who have taken the drug - it can give them man boobs. It just gave me swelling boobs and lactation. Yes, I lactated for about a month. I've never even had a child! To me, it was scary and super weird. If I were you, I would ask my doctor for an alternative. Trust me, you don't want to lactate.

@A MyDepressionTeam Member I do feel that my memory is failing me. I'm on Haldol right how bc I suffer hallucinations. Sounds crazy, I know. My neurologist told me to come up with another word for hallucinations since hallucinations = wild LSD meth smoker or something like that. I have been on Haldol for about 3 weeks and its already making my hair fall out and giving me this weird feeling that I don't remember where I was when I had a significant conversation, and I can't remember words: Last night I was thinking about reindeer. And I couldn't remember what they were called. I finally settled on rain rabbits and when I ran it by my husband he cleared it up. Its such a scary feeling. I need my meds but I don't want to lose my mind. I've not heard of Lorien. I think it could be the prolonged side effects. I take approximately 9 pills a day and I have suffered just about everything, including weight gain.
