SG03 - Sometimes Haldol™ (haloperidol) can cause anxiety, especially in the first week or two of therapy. This often does begin to lessen within the first week, as your body adjusts to the medication.

Another side effect of Haldol that can resemble anxiety is akathisia, which manifests as being unable to sit still. One may be fidgety, or need to keep moving around.

It is best to go over this with your doc, as he knows your history and your response to at least some medication, so he should be able to figure out the cause of the anxiety.

I hope that this is of some help. - Cam
