It takes away the delusions unless I'm under a lot of stress, I dont blame the meds for my weight gain, I just eat too much, I'm not one of those people boyo.

I recommend trying a second generation anti psychotic called "Olanzapine"
Also known as Zyprexa.

Takes away all hallucinations, delusional thinking , paranoia.

It will change your life for the better

What your actual diagnosis?

Schizophrenia?

Bi-Polar?

Something else?

Schizophrenia.
Olanzapine is so much better and effective than Risperidone.

Also Risperidone tends to sedate you during the day, which can cause oversleeping.

Not nearly as potent as Olanzapine.

Start off on a low dose, say 2mg. You can increase the dosage up to a maximum dosage of 20mg.

You also feel calmer, think clearer and feel COMPLETELY balanced.

Just my 2 cents my friend
