I found Risperdal to be mildly stimulating when I first started it. I think it was more a startup effect than the end goal. So it may not be so much a poop-out as a settling into its actual effects.

It might well work better for anxiety than depression, though I sometimes get a bit tearful when I've been on it a while and quit taking it regularly.

One way it may be helpful is to reduce the anxiety that accompanies a more activating antidepressant.

This is totally based on my own experience and YMMV.
