thought it would be beneficial for the crazy/disturbing thoughts I was having, and the paranoia. It says it can help with those in 1-2wks, full effects in 4-6wks. I stopped taking klonopin PRN and taking it at bed with the Haldol because I am still having insomnia but it makes no difference. I didn't take klonopin at all yesterday. I finally (barring any unforseen complications, which believe, Ive had a wild ride of it and hard time finding a doctor!!) this Thursday so I am very interested to see what a pdoc has to say. Maybe they will increase the Haldol. I don't want a newer med. They cost hundreds of dollars a month and we can't afford health insurance for me right now. Plus, I feel better with a med that's been tried and true and around a while. I'd be willing to try Lithium again (I wasn't drinking a lot or enough actually) water when they first tried me on it inpatient BC I had an abscess in my mouth and everything tasted gross, so I wasn't excreting enough of it or whatever, there wasn't a *true* adverse reaction ya know? But I REALLY dont want to be on a med that causes weight gain either!!
