Anyone else feel like a zombie on haldol?

I was on 30 mg of Haldol for three years and was a total zombie. Slept 12-13 hours a day and was usually in bed for 18. I still had breakthrough symptoms and severe paranoia while on it, so my pdoc switched me to Zyprexa earlier this year and it’s been my miracle med.

It’s not just you.

Did haldol make you muscles stiff?

When I was on 40 mg Haldol daily I never felt so bad in my life. Even the 100 mg decoate shot was demoralizing.

How was haldol changed to your new meds?

Typically, we like to leave inactive threads alone and just start a new thread instead. This is different than how some forums are run, but we do it this way because it frequently upsets users to have old topics revived when they are no longer relevant. It can also be frustrating to the person who revived the thread when they don’t get a reply, because the original poster is no longer active or no longer finds the topic relevant. Feel free to start a new thread on this topic.
