I've been taking the Risperdal for about a week and a half.

As meds get into our systems they reach a level that help eliminate our symptoms. It's certainly possible that you are approaching that level & feel sleepy. As you get adjusted to the level, the sleepiness will decrease. There are certain types of meds, like narcotics or sleeping pills that will always cause sleepiness & that's to be expected. However, if this doesn't pass in a week or so, you should report it to the dr. Maybe you are working harder or more stressed &
