Yes, Risperdal is strong medicine, and 9mg is a fairly high dosage. I also think Seroquel would give you fewer side effects, but the half-life is short; average = 6 hours. When I took Seroquel, I had to dose 2x100mg 4 times a day. I didn't stick with it(I should also mention that I don't have psychosis, and was taking it for xanax withdrawal)though. If you can pay the steep price for it, and don't mind the dosing schedule, I'd say it'd be better and less side effects than risperdal.
Good Luck
Justin
