There is no shame in admitting you have psychotic symptoms. The right meds will give you control over your life by giving you back all the energy you are using to fight the symptoms. Going back and forth about what's real and what isn't is exhausting.
I have taken Haldol, it's an inexpensive and useful med. Abilify is a new one especially for bipolar psychosis. I'm on Abilify now, and it has an additional anti-depressant effect. I take it daily.
All the anti-psychotics have similar side-effects that may require adjusting your dosage.
