So you recovered from some antipsychotic medication but now got put on risperidone and are trying to recover again?

Also - even while on Invega, I could go outside and just enjoy being outside. I could read books but was much less motivated to. I slept through every night like normal - Invega didn't mess up my sleep at all. I could also be moved to tears fairly regularly by movies/tv.

I'm off the injections now and I'm still in the very early days of my recovery journey. I know there's still a lot of the drug in me because of the long half life, but I've noticed positive changes already - I got emotional chills watching an advert recently and I'm finding it easier to clean around the house. I've got a long way to go, but because of all of the recovery stories that I've read, I'm positive that I will recover fully.

You're only a few months off the injection. Give it some more time and be optimistic. Believe in your capacity for recovery. Get out in the sunshine. Do any little thing that brings you joy. Even if you don't enjoy it at first, spend some time reading anyway. If you can't be optimistic, just give it some more time. The drug has a very long half life. It's still in your system. Once it's out of your system, you will feel a lot better. Keep going.

I feel very different. Not normal. Think I have brain damage because songs don’t register anymore. I feel drunk all the time. I’m going to order a brain scan and maybe I can apply to be euthanised.

0.5%-1% CMC-Na Drug Preparation Instructions
For oral gavage

1. Add the sample to the mortar and grind it thoroughly, then add a small amount of cosolvent (DMSO, Tween-80, glycerin, etc.), usually 1-2 drops, then continue grinding until dissolved. Add 0.5%-1% CMC-Na to the desired volume.
2. The above method is the recommended method for customers to prepare large volumes of drugs. For example, for using several milliliters to several tens of milliliters of CMC-Na is required. If the dosage prepared by the customer is relatively small, only one milliliter or even less, the customer cannot grind the compounds, please add CMC-Na directly (ensuring that there are no large particles in the solution, in case of blocking the needle).
3. When final solution preparation is completed: the solution is in chyle state, the granules are still visible with naked eyes. Usually sink to the bottom and shake it before using. Smooth when performing oral gavage without blocking the needle.
Use only 100 ml of the solution during the day. Do not use more than 0.5%
 
drink slowly or you will get dizzy. It's supposed to be with oral gavage. 6mg per ml is the maximum concentration

Here's something to listen to if you guys want, it's Jocko Willink's podcast on Youtube and he's a former Navy SEAL, and he interviews war veterans on his show or reads from historical books and talks about it with his friends, here he's interviewing this girl who was a veteran, and they talk about doing psychedelics in there and her having mental health problems..

 
I received 2 doses 234 mg and 156 mg in May. I'm two months off and slowly getting better. I want to cry tbh I can't believe this is happening to me. At least I am able to kind of watch TV now.

Is invega trinza still in my system?
So I’ve been doing really good right but I still have this mental block that’s kinda stopping me from being my best self. I also am still emotionless which is starting to annoy me again. It’s been 10 months since I last took invega trinza but I’m wondering how long it usually takes to get out of ones system. I’ve heard from some people it takes like a year to 1 year and a half but I find that hard to believe but also wouldn’t be surprised because I still feel very similar to what I did on invega just less depressed and more motivated. Bare in mind I’m still on abilify maintena 200 mg so maybe it’s this numbing me? I’m lowering my dose to 180 next month then to 160 in another couple of months etc. So hopefully I’ll find a sweet spot where I can feel some emotions again. Thoughts on all this would be appreciated.
 
ive been on a lot of antipsychotics in my lifetime and ive never had the side effect of getting fatter on them, for me it was always the lack of energy and feeling dumbed down on them

welll if your still on an antipsychotic your going to feel emotionless. why not just get off antipsychotics completely?
 
Hi it is me. Tiny update here. 6 days since my invega 75 mg shot, after being without it since February, and before that had taken shots for many years.

I asked some questions from the nurse and he said that it takes about 13 days to take full effect and some other stuff (can't remember) happens until 4 months.

Feeling stable. Actually almost feels like my mind is not working against me. I have washed all my clothes, and cleaned up the most part of my apartment. Sleeping is fucked up, but it is always fucked up.

I think that i am so crazy that i am unable to function without invega. However, if you can manage daily life without this shit, then skip the shots and never look back!

Japi that is really great to hear that you're feeling better on the drug. Maybe it's the lower dose that works perfectly for you?

Yeah, i think 75mg is an appropriate dose for me. There are side effects of course, but not as bad as with risperidone or zyprexa.

There is frequent peeing and i can deal with that way better than i can deal with psychosis.
 
Hi all, still really down about being on this community treatment order. Anyone else here besides robustcanuck had to deal with being placed on a community treatment order. I just dont want to be on meds and want to be left alone. I dont know why they have to go forcing meds on ppl who dont want to be on them. I mean its my life, if i dont want to be take medocation then i shouldnt have to. Why are they able to force this stuff on us.
 
Ghost fart said:
Good question. That is just awful. How long will they force you? is there a deadline of some kind? Try to stay strong. I understand if it is bringing you down, but try to stay strong anyway!

There is no deadline. Im able to appeal it after 6 months but im told that normally the guy appealing loses. Sp im kind of scared ill be on it for the rest of my life
