I don’t know if mine is from the medication fully, but I definitely have brain fog. My processing speed is significantly lower since taking haldol. But again, it could be that my illness is just getting worse, as I used to be catatonic and that is like ultimate brain fog.

I went to a lower dose. I have positive symptoms, but the meds help me maintain enough insight to push past them as I know the thoughts and inputs aren’t real.

Always happy to hear you’re doing well with it all :slightly_smiling_face: Lowered dose made it manageable but the fog and brain buzz is still pretty strong. Every ap so far has done it.

Are you getting daily exercise? How’s your diet? Got any hobbies that force you to work your noodle?

I do light workouts in the morning and eat really healthy. Yoga once a week. I work full time and always has my brain working overtime.
