  :help:It seems that I have tried everything.  I think my Docs are running out of options.  Everything I have been on either doesn't work or stopped working.  Ive tried Invega, Depakote, lithium,  Topamax, Geodon, seroquel, Abilify, Lamictal, Risperdone and many different types of anti depressants.  My most recent med is Haldol.  Anyone have any luck with this med?

I was on it for some time. It wound me down in the evenings but thats about it. I was taken off of it as it has high incidence of tardives. My old pdoc tried putting me on risperdoil said its basically the same thing but better and less chance of tardive. I couldnt take it due to lack of insurance and it cost too much.

i think i took haldol for a little bit and i couldnt sleep on it seroquel was my best sleeper im on invegra and i just got a sleep aid to go with that and im dropping citalopram taking all these meds feels taxing but not taking any is making me freak out and thats just wearing me down i wish i had insurance and a better source of income so i could afford seroquel and lexapro cause i felt those worked the best when i had them but i started on the generics of those and got way too many side effects i wish i wasnt so easily discouraged bc i think i am only making things harder on myself today i feel alittle better bc im trying to help myself but im all too manic to even be in public i wish we had something to help us all like a universal drug that just puts you at ease without any side effects hopefully some day we will
