    anyone on antipsychotics ?? risperidone ?

    hey guys,

    Anyone here on antipsychotics ? im starting a low dose risperidone 1mg per day for mild depression and anxiety.

    How does it affect your training? cycles? muscle gain and fat loss? strength ? energy levels ?

    Thanks.

    Yeah. Risperidone is nasty sh*t. Don't forget about tardive dyskenisia. NO doctor should be prescribing that for depression and anxiety.

    Especially if it's only mild depression and anxiety.

    ^ have you tried anything else?

    And edit: Had a friend who was put on anxiety medicine. He claimed it caused him to lose LBM.

    dont blame u man. i also get anxiety and got a script for Buspar. chek it out. i havent had to use it yet and doc said i could take as needed and not 2x per day every day like it says on the bottle.. might be worth a shot for when symptoms get more than u care to deal with..

    I haven't had to take anything for that in quite awhile, but when I did, effexor xr worked well for me.
