I've been on Risperdal for a couple of weeks shy of a year now. I started on 1mg twice daily, but that has since been upped to 1mg in the morning and 2mg at night. I never considered going on an AP until I was in the hospital and my inpatient psychiatrist suggested it. Since I'm on so many meds it's sometimes hard to tell which medication has what effect, but I can't argue with the fact that I do pretty well 75% of the time now. The other 25% sucks pretty bad still, but 75% is far better than nothing.
