> Do you know why she gave you the risperidone? Did she explain it? Usually antipsychotics are for...you guessed it...psychotic disorders.

You are right, of course. However, I think it would be more productive to consider these drugs as being tools that may have multiple therapeutic uses.

It is good that you laid out the serious side effects that these drugs (neuroleptics) can produce.

I have no idea if using Risperdal to reverse a hypothetical Mirapex-induced anhedonia would work.
