I cant take being in my brain anymore. Im prescribed 6 mg a day because it used to make me restless if i took more. But i usually just take 2 mg and take 4 mg if im feelin bad but i cant do this anymore. So im gonna take 8mg a day. Then ill go to my doctor GP (psychiatrist moved away) and tell her i need a higher dose. I can’t handle it. It seems like every other day i think my dogs have been poisoned, i think im gonna be framed, i think someones gonna lie about me, i think someones tricking me, or i think im making things happen with my mind. Or that im being hacked.

Can i speak slightly out of turn? - and say try not to rely on the drugs so much, especially Haldol. All your gonna do is build a tolerance and end up taking even more.
Try alternative methods instead, like box breathing exercises or calming music.
All im saying is, dont make yourself dependant.
If you think im talking out of my arse, feel free to tell me lol.

I think i dont rely enough on medicine. I have been keeping at such a minimum dose just to take the edge off but i feel like i cant handle it any more. But i will try some breathing and go lay down and watch tv.

It sounds like you need a new pdoc as soon as possible. That way, your meds can be adjusted by an expert.

Yeah I agree with @LilyoftheValley
Find yourself a competent psychiatrist
Don’t attempt to adjust your meds on your own

My GP said she isnt qualified for me and said she would try to push the clinic to get me in with a new psychiatrist. So thats good.
