I had a student once on Risperdal--when a new doctor took him off it was a rough 6 weeks getting that out of his system. He would fly into rages and I had to get the other kids out of the room FAST. Hpppened several times a week for about a month. Once he got cleaned out, he was the sweetest kid you would ever want to meet.
Wish I knew why doctors prescribed this stuff to young teens. Seems the cure is worse than anything else.

Risperdal has been a Godsend to my child.
It seems your experience was with a child whose undelying reason for rages was improperly diagnosed.

Yes, and some of these drugs also stunt growth. I've seen the results. Doctors are being irresponsible. They are just throwing crap at a problem and hope some of it sticks.

I wonder why that happened. I'm taking Risperdal now, and when I don't take it I don't have anger management issues.
