Risperdal (Risperidone) messed me up

I was diagnosed with OCD for the past 3 and a half years b/c I dislocated my jaw and had head pain 24/7 which caused me delusional thoughts. I didn't know where the pain was from until recently. Anyway I took max doses of Paxil for 2 years and I was still horny as hell which amazes me b/c most people lose their sex drive on SSRIs right away. I didn't know nething at the time. About a year ago a psychiatrist put me on Risperdal at 6mg a day with the max dose of lexapro. The first day I took the Risperdal I went to a club and couldn't get an erection. I called the psychiatrist up and she said it was probably the lexapro. I didn't know much about it at the time until I continued taking Risperdal for a grand total of 4 months where I gained 40 pounds and got breast enlargement and even lactated. Im a freakin dude mind you. She fuked me up so bad b/c she even added wellbutrin to it b/c my parents didn't believe my head pains and thought it was all anxiety. As a result a year later after figuring out the problem was my jaw and getting it popped in place after suffering for 3 years I have no pain or anxiety and quit all drugs. The problem is I believe the Risperdal left me permanenly impotent. My sex drive is like 10 percent of what it used to be. I can't get erections at will anymore. My hormones tested were all very low for someone my age. Before this I was going through puberty and I believe Risperdal ended my puberty at 21 years of age. I know one other person this happened too and a year later he still is impotent. I believe the drug completely messed up my dopamine expression. I tried everything to reverse this from organic detox diet to dopamine precursor supplements but nothing really works. Also a dopamine agonist may not work either b/c the drug over sensitized my dopamine receptors which is why people get TD from this shit. Hopefully someone has some advice or knows someone that solved this. ~Thanx infectedmushroomz
