I was put on Haldol a little over 2 weeks ago .. Not sure if it is really helping me .. so ill admit I havent taken them in 4 days .. My mind races all the time on or off meds .

I guess im just being a typical bipolar person and saying " to hell with meds right now"

My husband isnt too happy he said " why stop taken them if they are working ? My reply was because I dont know if they are or not and its pretty common of bipolars to just stop there meds .. He said well your sense of humor has been coming back , your not isolating like you were .. I can agree to all that ..BUT what if im just not rapid cycling as much but due to my circumstances not just because of a medication .. Im not sure just how fast haldol taken orally works ... I couldnt find it on crazymeds.com or any other site to be honest about how fast it will show signs of working or not .

Im sure ill notice a downward spiral or starting to fly high and ill take it again ,, I just get tired of taking pills

I think ALL psych meds should at least be Pretty and colorful instead of dull white and dull Orange or dull blue colors ... LOL I just think they should look pretty maybe we would all be more inclined to take them .. hehehehe

Everyone be kind to yourself today ~
