I need advice on getting off of the anti-psychotic RISPERDAL. I read the book "Your Drug May Be Your Problem" and it says that it could take up to 2 years for me to taper off of it. Is there a better way to do it? Can I get off this stuff faster without taking any other drugs? I am sick of this drug, I gained 100lbs. and can't work it off. I took risperdal because I went into a manic episode, but that is over and gone. My doctor won't get me off of it. I want to be the way I was before taking this dam medication. Is there anyone out there who has taken this drug and gotten off it? If so could you please tell me how you did it? I think two years is too long to wait to get off of it.
