I was on invega 5 years ago for the breakdown I had from my work life. The side effects I mentioned like talking my thoughts, especially while journaling lasted for just over 3 years after I stopped invega. The "Hot Flushes" & excessive sweating never left over those 5 years & last year I was diagnosed with Hypothyroidism.
I trace all my thyroid problems & Induced anxiety back to Invega. I commented on this thread to expand on user experiences of Invega.
Whats going on for me now? Last year I sought assistance from a gov social worker after a sexual assault & noting a PTSD Diagnosis on my Gov Medical File she reported me to Psych Services who prescribed Haloperidol, claiming I was delusional again, causing less severe side effects from Invega but still plenty of akathisia. I begged them not to use Invega.
Currently using Cannabis & Amphetamines for Akathisia symptoms from the Haloperidol, which I have been off for 5 weeks now.
