Meds over or under

my dr perscribed Thioridazine 200 mgs i argued i only needed 50 mg a day.for years he perscibed .i cut pills in 4th ,so of coarse would only see him every 6 months or 1 time a year.it worked perfect for me.each year he would look at my file shake his head argued i needed to be taking the 200 mgs.evenually he gave up just perscribed 50 mgs.at 50 i had no symptoms,so i find mind boggling why over medicate.i am not suggesting anyone try this ,just kicking it out here to hear your input,if others faced same issue

When I was first diagnosed I wondered why they had to give me 40 mg of Haldol a day. That was murder.
