yes im taking my haldol. i say im in recovery BECAUSE im handling life better than ive handled it in the past 5-6 years or so.
people are gonna hate me for this but i dont attribute this to meds. if anything with meds MAYBE small portion to meds.
i made a speech at the BBQ event the other day about how recovery is about more than meds. its about getting your sleep. therapy. coping mechanisms. healthy eating. exercise. group. etc. THATS what i attribute my recovery to. all that. medication is only a small portion. you cant rely on medication alone. its like praying to god and putting into action what you want to happen to JUST TO USE AN EXAMPLE.
