I'd say definitely, the typical antipsychotics are known for this.
what about risperidone instead? it's the atypical most similar to haldol, potent.
it may also just be your illness. what about raising the Effexor?

hell yeah it can. Haldol is notorious for causing depression and dysphoria.

Effexor doesnt do much for me at higher doses.
Risperidone: Same story. Doesnt do much. At all.

> Is it safe for short term use?
I don't see why not, can cause hyperprolactinema like risperidone. It's easy on weight and sedation though.
Would you be interested in it in low doses for depression or moderate to higher doses for the antipsychotic benefits?

Interested in it as an replacement for Haldol, therefore saving me from Haldol induced depression

Anorgasmia?
Zyprexa at 20 mg is an offender already.

Not sure, all I know is it typically causes a rise in prolactin in doses used for antipsychotic effects.
How do you react to Latuda or Abilify?

Yeah, the prolactin could be trouble in the sack but still Amisulpride could help me,
Latuda: Weird tired feeling
Abilify: Extreme akathisia
