**Just trying to be objective**
I can't help but think the damage from invega is permanent.
I would love to hear a recovered person's story, to get their description of healing.
I know that it seems possible, but a lot would have to change for me over the next few monthes given the condition I am in now. Life is bearable, but I am lobotomized. Obviously, I am a disabled person and not a day goes by that this fact doesn't smack me in the face. Brain damage from invega is brutal and recovery would mean some major reconnections in places that are currently dark and/or numb. This is such a difficult subject to discuss because it deal in the subtle cognitive workings of the mind.
This experience gives you an appreciation for the majesty of the natural human nervous system ; a prefrontal cortex for personality, a frontal cortex for human relationships, and even a hippocampus to FEEL music. My God, what a blessing and marvel life is. I only hope to feel the vigor and thrill of being free, one more time.
peace to your spirit
If you can be bothered to go through the pages of this thread then you will find a few recovery stories and most of the people posting here have been off the drug for not very long. Google 'badrobot invega bluelight v.2' to see his posts. He claims to have mostly recovered and also google 'decisive invega bluelight v.2' to see her posts. She claimed that at 10 months she had recovered and came back later saying she is even better. I have talked via email with another guy who said that he had recovered all of his cognitive and bodily functions and went on to manage a plant. I have also seen other cases on here where people have said that they've fully recovered.
Most of the people who recover and don't post usually do it because they want to put this whole experience behind them and don't want to look through the forums, they're focusing on getting on with their lives. There have been times when i've felt like this is permanent but i've seen a few cases around of people recovering from this stuff. It will take time but i think that you can recover.
