For Psychosis "I had an involuntary psychiatric hospitalization. This Haldol felt the same as Risperdal Consta, only it felt more tolerable. Still the same mind freeze and dyskinesia and extreme fear from dyskinesia, as if you are losing your mind. Also, permanent changes to normal only began happening 6 months after stopping. Permanent rise in phosphorus levels in my blood, as well as more inflammation of the parathyroids. After that, my osteoporosis became unmanageable. Putting people on these substances is only justifiable if there is absolutely no way to restrain them or make them think and behave in our normal everyday human reality. Since reality is hard to judge when you are working, supposedly, then all the shy and outspoken kids who are not Black get put on these meds first."

"The medical center in Ohio forced this drug into me after they noted that I did not want drugs and was awake, alert, and conscious, with normal mood and affect. This drug was given in conjunction with several others and caused lasting headaches and serious cognitive dysfunctions, including seizures and loss of joy. Avoid this drug if at all possible."

For Psychosis "Although this medication completely alleviated all of the symptoms of psychosis, my mom experienced severe joint stiffness, cramping, muscle pain, and weakness. During the 6 months she was on this, she changed from healthy and athletic to a near vegetative state. Currently, she is unable to get out of bed or use the restroom on her own."
