Guest guest Posted March 2, 2013 Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 I used it for myself many many years ago when i was 19.I am 31 now.I was going through severe depression and hypocondria.I really believed I was dying of some deadly disease.Anyhow, I began to get milk leaking out of my breast and I attempted suicide while on this medication.I am not 100 percent it was the medicine but it took my a zillion times deeper in depression.I was not a suicidal person just badly depressed.If your son I guess has no options then im not sure.Depends how bad his situation is.Everyone is different.I would avoid all psychiatric medications and try other options.im not sure if you already have or not.Maybe diet,homeopathy,and supplements.My 3 year ols is very hyper and has autism w/adhd and I wouldnt give her adderall or ritalin, but some kids are so severe I suppose theres no choice in the matter.Is your son severly bad, and have you tried all other options? I would look into bacteria and parasites first, and be careful.I am sure your doing your best and youll make an informed decision.

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2013 Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 Hi- I don't think you'll find to many experiences or favorable posts about risperadone on this forum- Just my opinion- if an autistic child is violent, large enough to pose a threat, concern for safety of others, etc. sometimes these drugs can be utilized. I know a pediatric practice that does use this medication with good results- very low dosing-titer up slowly if needed. From what I have seen, does not 'drug' the child, but helps stop the cycle of aggressive moods- the main side affect is substantial increase in appetite. > > > ** > > > > > > > > > > > > Hello, > > My son's psychiatrist recommended Risperdol for my son to deal with > > aggression and property distractions.

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2013 Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 Hi in January 2012 my daughter who has ASD started having severe OCD-constantly trying to fix things in class, very aggressive-biting everyone, had urinary issues- constantly holding herself and was a mess. My sweet little girl became a monster. The school asked for medical intervention. My Ped said she needed to see a psychiatrist so that is where we took her. The dr put her on Risperidone. Although it helped a little in the beginning her aggression never went away and I believe it actually caused her head shakes that she never had before. After taking it for 8 months and not seeing much improvement I took her off. If it wasn't going to help then why keep her on it? She was actually diagnosed with PANS so I think we should have never put her on it in the first place. I should have stuck with my gut and no anti-psychiatric drugs and did more research. I would have never given her that. Thanks Kim > > > > > > > > Hello, > > My son's psychiatrist recommended Risperdol for my son to deal with aggression and property distractions.

Guest guest Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 My daughter who is 8 and has ASD took Risperidone and I think it caused her head tics. If I had to do it all over again I would have done more investigative research before I let the psychiatrist prescribe that for her. It worked for only a short time and then her aggression got worse. She was later diagnosed with PANS and has been doing better with antibiotics and an antiviral. She still has head tics though.
