Risperidone can cause weight gain in the doses used for psychosis, but in the 1mg dose used for anxiety and depression, it hasnt caused any for me, infact I have managed to lose a fair swag of weight while taking it.
By taking 1mg risperidone at bedtime, you will likely get SOME releif of your anxiety, and thus be able to reduce your reliance on Klonopin, such that you wont be tolorant to it, and when you do need it, it will realy work
Taking the 1mg of Risperidone has enabled me to cut my Xanax from 1mg three times a day to 1mg twice a dat on most days, thus I have 1mg up my sleeve to take if I am having a particularly bad day.
