Hey.
Just an update. I recently began Red Sage and Im having glimmer of hope. It is supposed to metabolize the Abilify injection faster, among other benefits, such as circulate blood flow to brain, help the heart, liver, and also possibly increase dopamine, ectr..For the first time in a long time I am having anxiety and faster inner dialogue thoughts, which for me is a marker of brain activity and emotions returning. I am also getting slightly irritated/frustrated at things, which is another suggestion of emotion. I am crying easier. I feel somewhat hopeful, literally, like calm and somewhat motivated. Havent felt this way in a while. I was also recently prescribed 25mg of Topamax for migraines, and Im hoping to exploit the dose high as safely possible to lose the 100lbs I gained from the injection. People lose like 150lbs in 3 months on Topamax without trying, its interesting. I also read its an inducer of CYP3A4 which metabolizes Abilify faster as well.
My doctor told me I have elevated liver enzymes. Im assuming this is from the Abililify or drinking alcohol while on it. Im going to take Milk Thistle to heal the liver hopefully. Any other suggestions?
Im also still having flashes of light in the corner of my eye from the retinal pulling/eye deterioration from the medication, to answer the question about eye problems. I had this happen before, and I feel like it stopped,(healed?) after the medication was out of my system. Its the other eye this time around.
Im going to start Velvet Bean when the injection is out of my system next January for dopamine production and agonism. Im hoping that will ease the root of the majority of our complaints. Our brains & body systems just need time to heal. I read I need to drink green tea with the Bean for maximum benefit. Anyone know the ideal dose of Velvet Bean?
Im pretty inspired by this current rush of anxiety and irritation. I feel like I am getting closer to my emotions again. My last injection was in March.
I am going to try Jiaogulan for brain repair when Im all detoxed as well.
In the meantime, the best way to ascertain weed/alcohol tolerance is to abstain from it for a while. If you try everyday its not surprising you have a high tolerance. Im giving myself at least ten months before I try. Then space it out if still no results. The dopamine effects will return in time. We have to be patient. In the meantime supplements help the entire body system.
Since Im beginning to feel emotion recently, Im getting pissed all over again that we have to go through this crap. (Bittersweet because of the slight emotional success )lol. But seriously, we deserve a lot of money for this experience, and we should do what we can to shut down this Holocaust scam entitled Psychiatry.
I recommend we all work with the CCHR organization. Excuse the reiteration, yet this subject keeps coming up.
Lastly it is 2am and I am wide awake. Its
nearly impossible to work or go to school now, because this injection causes complete insomnia (along with cognitive impairment), and I am awake all night and uneasy during the day. Yet I still do not have a tired sensation. I am hoping that it will return in time.
Last few injections I at least got drowsy when I felt the effects of alcohol or weed.
Im going to stay patient.
Six months till I will probably see some progress.
