Make sure you take it as prescribed
I hope haldol works for you, but if it doesn’t there is a lot of other med’s you can try.
i tried haldol it didn’t help much it mostly slowed me down. the injections helped but my current doctor knows i don’t want to go through withdrawal again from haldol

A little sleepy. My dad says he notices I’m forgetful and restless.

Yeah, good idea. Maybe you can ask your boyfriend or your family to tell you if they see any changes in you too. Sometimes it’s hard to be objective about our own mental state or behaviour and you can’t always see if something is wrong when another person close to us can see something is different about us.

I’m on haldol depot currently. I find it works but my pdoc wants to switch me to abilify. He’s worried about long term side effects. TD. I’m already getting a jerking arm and rippling muscles.

Smart! Med journaling in the past has always been very useful for me

I don’t like haldol for daytime. I’d rather take all my meds at bedtime .do you think the pdoc will let me lower the haldol to ten mg with the rest at night.

Good idea. Maybe write down before and after.
I am currently on haldol. It worked in helping elimate most of the voices. But I did have a side effect. It made me more restless. It still does. I need it though so I put up with the restlessness.
