Igor1287 Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 (edited) Alright, the reason I started this topic is a need a good advice. My problems started September last year, after turbulent relationship and quite possibly due to overtraining I suffered a mental fallout, father panicked called my brother who in turn called the police to take me to the mental hospital, which I refused to go on my own volition. The cherry on top is my mother was a paranoid and committed suicide two decades ago by refusing to take her prescribed meds, so I knew if go through the system I would end up a Poll-drugged zombie. here was my therapy: Valproate 500mg, Haldol 8mg Prozac 20 mgOlanzapine 5 mg Biperiden 2 mg Ativan 5 mg I managed to wean my self to lorazepam 2.5 mg Haldol 0.5 mg Olanzapine 1.25mg three months ago I jumped from Haldol 0.5 mg and a week after from Zyprexa 1.25 mg thinking that antipsychotics are easy to get off (i was stable at the time on these doses) for first two months i suffered anxiety, depression and suicidal thinking, but I managed to shrug them off as withdrawal symptoms, the problem is after approximately 9 weeks I started to suffer 24/7 insomnia, I could fall asleep but would wake up in 30 minutes, that lasted for a couple a days, not wanting to end up hospitalized again i reinstated 1 mg Haldol and 3.75 Zyprexa, at higher doses of both these drugs I get extremely restless, on lower doses I can barely sleep, right now i sleep between 6-8 hours but during the day I am extremely agitated for having to drink these poisons, i went to a couple of reputable shrinks who wanted to up my doses, particularly Zyprexa to 10mg, which I refused. My question is should i listen to these shrinks, or try to though it up and remain at these dosages and try to stabilize?

Moderator Emeritus Songbird Posted July 4, 2018 Moderator Emeritus Share Posted July 4, 2018 Hi Igor1287, welcome to SA. I'm sorry to hear you've been having a rough time, what with having to go to hospital, which must have been frightening, and then with bad withdrawal symptoms. We will need some more information before we can offer any suggestions. Is your current med regimen just the 1 mg Haldol and 3.75mg Zyprexa, or are you taking any other meds? When did you reinstate the Haldol and Zyprexa? How did you taper the valproate and Prozac and when did you stop these? Please create a signature containing a summary of your med history, including all drugs, doses and dates (starting and stopping). Your signature appears below every post you make, and helps us see your situation easily without having to read from the top every time. You could look at my signature for an example. Instructions for creating your signature are here: Please put your withdrawal history in your signature. You can edit your signature here: edit your signature in Account Settings. Please post all your updates and questions about your situation here in your introduction topic, and we will try to help as best we can. 2001–2002 paroxetine 2003 citalopram 2004-2008 paroxetine (various failed tapers) 2008 paroxetine slow taper down to 2016 Aug off paroxetine2016 citalopram May 20mg Oct 15mg … slow taper down2018 citalopram 13 Feb 4.6mg 15 Mar 4.4mg 29 Apr 4.2mg 6 Jul 4.1mg 17 Aug 4.0mg 18 Nov 3.8mg 2019 15 Mar 3.6mg 21 May 3.4mg 26 Dec 3.2mg 2020 19 Feb 3.0mg 19 Jul 2.9mg 16 Sep 2.8mg 25 Oct 2.7mg 23 Oct 2.6mg 24 Dec 2.5mg 2021 29 Aug 2.4mg 15 Nov 2.3mg Link to comment
Igor1287 Posted July 4, 2018 Author Share Posted July 4, 2018 I am still using Ativan 2.5 - 3 mg, reinstated Haldol and Zyprexa in June 12, thought my current regiment of 1 mg Haldol and 3.75 mg Zyprexa is from 27-28 june, it was a lot of trial and error really, I messed things up by dropping two meds, probably suffering two withdrawals. Right now I am having one good day and then one bad day. I tapered valproate quite rapidly after leaving hospital cause of allergic reaction (my facial skin was bloated and peeling off), I also went cold turkey on Prozac in January, think I suffer no ill effects from it. Personally, I had no idea what I was doing, just wanted to be off these meds, only when things started to get hairy did I start searching the internet, learning about 10% taper rule, holding etc. Nobody told me the little devils where addictive.

Hi Igor, please can you put all dates and doses in your signature. We need to see when and how you started, tapered, stopped and restarted each drug. If you look at the last two lines of my signature you can see specific dates and doses. If you don't know the exact day at least put the month, or put "early Jan", "mid Jan" or "late Jan", for example. Were you on any meds prior to September 2017, or were all the meds started together at the same time? 2001–2002 paroxetine 2003 citalopram 2004-2008 paroxetine (various failed tapers) 2008 paroxetine slow taper down to 2016 Aug off paroxetine2016 citalopram May 20mg Oct 15mg … slow taper down2018 citalopram 13 Feb 4.6mg 15 Mar 4.4mg 29 Apr 4.2mg 6 Jul 4.1mg 17 Aug 4.0mg 18 Nov 3.8mg 2019 15 Mar 3.6mg 21 May 3.4mg 26 Dec 3.2mg 2020 19 Feb 3.0mg 19 Jul 2.9mg 16 Sep 2.8mg 25 Oct 2.7mg 23 Oct 2.6mg 24 Dec 2.5mg 2021 29 Aug 2.4mg 15 Nov 2.3mg Link to comment

Igor1287 Posted July 5, 2018 Author Share Posted July 5, 2018 Interactions between your drugs Major lorazepam olanzapine Applies to: Ativan (lorazepam), Zyprexa (olanzapine) Ask your doctor before using LORazepam together with OLANZapine. This can cause low blood pressure, shallow breathing, weak pulse, muscle weakness, drowsiness, dizziness and slurred speech. This may be more likely to occur in older adults or those with a debilitating condition. You should be counseled to avoid activities requiring mental alertness until you know how these medications will affect you. If your doctor prescribes these medications together, you may need a dose adjustment or special tests to safely use these medications together. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor. Switch to professional interaction data Moderate haloperidol lorazepam Applies to: Haldol (haloperidol), Ativan (lorazepam) Using haloperidol together with LORazepam may increase side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, confusion, and difficulty concentrating. Some people, especially the elderly, may also experience impairment in thinking, judgment, and motor coordination. You should avoid or limit the use of alcohol while being treated with these medications. Also avoid activities requiring mental alertness such as driving or operating hazardous machinery until you know how the medications affect you. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor. Switch to professional interaction data Moderate haloperidol olanzapine Applies to: Haldol (haloperidol), Zyprexa (olanzapine) Using haloperidol together with OLANZapine may increase the blood levels or add to the side effects of either medication. Contact your doctor if you experience drowsiness, slurred speech, agitation, restlessness, convulsions, fever, an irregular heartbeat, or uncontrollable movements of the mouth, tongue, cheeks, jaw, arms or legs, or coma. If your doctor does prescribe these medications together, you may need a dose adjustment or special test to safely use both medications.

Switch to professional interaction data Therapeutic duplication warnings Therapeutic duplication is the use of more than one medicine from the same drug category or therapeutic class to treat the same condition. This can be intentional in cases where drugs with similar actions are used together for demonstrated therapeutic benefit. It can also be unintentional in cases where a patient has been treated by more than one doctor, or had prescriptions filled at more than one pharmacy, and can have potentially adverse consequences. Duplication Antipsychotics Therapeutic duplication The recommended maximum number of medicines in the 'antipsychotics' category to be taken concurrently is usually one. Your list includes two medicines belonging to the 'antipsychotics' category: haloperidol (active ingredient in Haldol (haloperidol)) olanzapine (active ingredient in Zyprexa (olanzapine)) Note: The benefits of taking this combination of medicines may outweigh any risks associated with therapeutic duplication. This information does not take the place of talking to your doctor. Always check with your healthcare provider to determine if any adjustments to your medications are needed.

Igor1287 Posted January 25, 2019 Author Share Posted January 25, 2019 I was hospitalized for 5 days, because of dangerous low white cell blood count. Basically, they did Zyprexa cold turkey since it was the main culprit, I had a very poor sleep so they gave me Midazolam, I used it only once. I slept maybe on average 3.5 hours, on day 4 they gave me a typical antipsychotic Prolixin 0.5 mg, slept good 6-7 hours, but maybe it was fatigue. Should I stay on low dose Prolixin until I am stable or should I try just to though it out, any input is appreciated.I'll edit my signature, right now I am using 2mg Ativan I haven't use Prolixin again as of yet, they gave me a box of Midazolam but its like a sugar pill. My symptoms are poor sleep, state of mania, occasional low mood with dark thoughts, sending love to all you people.

Igor1287 Posted January 25, 2019 Author Share Posted January 25, 2019 I wanted to say that I was hospitalized by my own free will, they wanted to do tests, hematologist ruled out leukemia, by law I could check myself out anytime I wish so I stayed for 5 days to rule out any blood disease. They offered me Lithium to raise my white blood cell count I refused then they offered me either Abilify or Prolixin, knowing that my mother was on Prolixin and that she tolerated it well I opted to at least try small dose and it worked, but this is only one dose. I am unsure what to do.

Administrator Altostrata Posted January 25, 2019 Administrator Share Posted January 25, 2019 Those are serious side effects, Igor. That mix of drugs was hurting you. You probably have withdrawal insomnia and other withdrawal symptoms from quitting those drugs. Has the Prolixin helped? See https://www.drugs.com/pro/prolixin.html Since it seems you have been taking a benzodiazepine (Ativan) since at least December 2017, you may be physiologically dependent on it even if you don't feel anything from it. What times of day do you take it, and at what dosages? This is not medical advice. Discuss any decisions about your medical care with a knowledgeable medical practitioner.
