I am 27 years old male, I am diagnosed with schizophrenia and depression. I was taking risperidone for about a year now. Started with 2 pills / day doze and now I am taking liquid risperidone, the equivalent of half a pill per day. I am taking zoloft for depression, 1 pill per day for about 6 months now. My schizophrenia is totally gone. For my depression I am no more feel depressed. The issue is that I always feel tired and I am oversleeping for 12 hours a day. I informed my doctor and he put me on xanax for 3 months now without real improvements. Besides my libido is to totally lost for more than a year. My doctor told me that this is due to the meds that I am taking and everything will be alright when I taper off.
