My mood is fine with 3-6mg tablets per day.
250mg equals 8mg per day and 125mg is 4mg.
I’ll try 4mg for longer period

I take 300mg haldol. Doesn’t make any difference.
I still have symptoms

Well yeah when you are med resistant even the side effects dont really work on you, right?

What do you mean?

Like you dont get the drowsiness from ap or akathisia?

Akathisia I had 5 years ago, at my firts ap.
Usually I don’t get affected by side effects.

You do get some side effects. I thought you sleep 12 hours and have gained weight!?

I meant i don’t get sedated no matter the doses.
But now i got sedated.
Psychiatrist called me now.
He upped chlorpromazine from 400mg to 500mg,
Clozapine from 300 to 400 and Nozinan from 4 pills a day to 5. Haha.
