Pineapplepen, i feel your worries about risperidone. but it's been a part of my "cocktail" of meds for BiPolar for about 4 years now and-after my body adjusted to taking 3mg at bedtime and being able to wake up without being a zombie-it has worked very well for me. my pdoc prescribed it for my morning anxieties which usually hit me about shower time each morning. none of the dreaded gynecomastia, no weight gain and no tremors. it, along with 3 other anti-psychotics and lorazepam have stabilized me quite well.
