@Healed I am so sorry that you got injected again with another hellish poison after having made it so far. Were you experiencing improvements at month 8? I like the fact that you're still positive and optimistic. We will get there and we will all heal sooner or later as long as we stay away from other poisonous drugs. Maybe your allergies are a result of Histamine intolerance. That may be the case with some psych drugs. They mess with the histamine receptors. A low histamine diet may help. It can also be benzo related? Were you taking benzons? Ppl in benzo withdrawal experience so called food sensitiviy, they are not able to eat certain things. Just try to find a way that fits for you, try to find some food that don't mess you up and stay on a mono-based diet. It will go away in time. I wish you a speedy recovery
Thank you so much for your kind comments.
Interestingly enough, I am certain the medication did something to my Histamine response, to state the least. My injection induced allergies mirror something called Mast Activation Syndrome, as well as Histamine Intolerance, and Multiple Chemical Sensitivity, all would be result of the injection. My allergies are so extreme I literally cannot function without Claritin allergy medication, and I still sneeze nonstop with a stuffed runny nose for WEEKS, if I am exposed to the tiniest bit of smoke/vapor, alcohol, or anything artificial scented or chemical wise ectr.. I cant even use a gas stove because of fumes, ectr.. Its asinine. Im going to an Allergist soon.
Not on Benzos, but sure wish those would work lol. I feel like vape cartilages actually get me somewhat stoned, and Im only a month out from the injection, so I have absolute confidence that my receptors will return the happy feelings & emotions I so dearly miss, once my brain heals again.
The fact I get sleepy and somewhat high feeling from vaping, after only a month out, is a sign that once Dopamine comes back into play, we will start to feel better. That will take time..
To answer your question, I did experience what seemed like Dopamine Sensitivity during the later half of those 8 months of recovery. I was also taking hormonal replacements and supplements that seemed to help my brain and libido, and I had my period back. I even had a mutual crush on a hot guy I actually felt infatuated with, ectr, and then that type of situation was all ripped away for the SECOND time in a few years, once I had that unfortunate experience at the ER this September, and they re-injected me because I complained of a REAL allergic reaction emergency. Now bam, no emotions for approximately a year..There goes the infatuation..to state the least..
The hospital basically kidnapped me again, as they wish to do to us all once we are in the System, so they could continue to profit from me, and the Nurses and Doctors were much more psycho than the patients, lol, But hey, we know how that goes.
I am, however, thinking that this Red Sage actually works, and does what it says it is supposed to do, as far as deactivating medication efficiency, because my Claritin Allergy medication doesnt work half as well. Which makes sense! That is grand news guys! At this rate Im going to assume by next Autumn, that the injection should be mostly deactivated. And my brain hopefully healed significantly. It could take years. But I am patient at this point, and positive, yes. I am looking forward to trying more supplements, especially Velvet Bean, after I am mostly detoxed. Then the supplements can do their job. I feel logically they cant do much till our receptors recycle/unclog.
I am also taking a diet pill from an Endocrinologist, and losing some of the weight gain. My Blood Sugar was high from this medication as well, so supplements, excercise, and Keto diet, are supposed to help. I dont want Diabetes, along with everything else..I was size 4 before this injection pill. Hoping to be back in my old clothes by Summer. Its so ludicrous I look at my life now in lost year increments, lost years that are only valid for being miserably stressed, and detoxing the injection. Its like, okay, since I got the injection in September, Im looking at losing the next year of my life. But come Autumn Im hoping to regain a life again, ectr.. Lol its beyond torture lol.
But lets all stay patient. We will heal in time friends.
Gonna try to go to sleep now, and entertain my boyfriend by faking emotions, and pretending that everythings okay, as usual. Im tired of trying to explain my suicidal depression from this situation to him, and him viewing me as some psycho suicidal nut as result. No one can understand the depth of what we are going through. Its 9:30 am, and the injection induced insomnia is screwing with me as usual. I have to memorize facts for a test later, and the injection is like ha, good luck with that sucker. Cognitive skills are a no go at the moment.
One year to go guys. One year to go.
Stay strong.
Keep you posted on all.
