I'm on risperdal and zoloft, (sertraline) and the side effects are making it difficult to do anything.i'm seeing my dr in a week should i stop the meds until then?

Risperidone first!: The risperdal is well known to cause drowsiness. As long as you're not at risk for harming yourself or others by reducing the dose of Risperdal, even a slight reduction or taking it only at night may increae energy and motivation. Seeing the prescribing provider sooner rather than later would be great too!

Schizoaffective: I feel empathy for your difficulty to do anything Risperdal is for treatment of Schizophrenia and Bipolar Disorder Zoloft is for treatment of Depression Think and ask your family about predominant symptoms of psychosis or depression you had if you had manic and depression episodes Call your Psychiatrist to see him immediately, inform present condition, discuss which medication you need and dose
