Thanks for the support but I can really watch nothing. It is too painful. I am not recovering. The opposite. Now I cannot sleep at all. I had tried camomile and melatonine. They didn't work. There is nothing that I can do more than at the beginning unfortunately It is really horrible. I got too many injections. My family still thinks it was a good idea I got 2 loading doses +100+3x75. It has been 7 months and 3 days.

I know it's hard it was painful for me at first even the thought of trying to watch tv & I just couldn't do it but then it got better & the only way to start is to watch it even laying down & just try even if all you do is lay there & just stare blankly at the screen it will eventually get better. It will also look to your family like you're trying.
Can you lay in the sunshine during the day?

But you sleep 8h. You are recovering
Yes, I can lie in the sun. I have done it sometimes but I feel also miserable there
 
Invega sucks, we all know that. Ive taken 7 shots because I refused all medication under sectioning and thankfully Ive kept really active. Every day I go out exercising in some activity. My life is not the same, my football ability is much lower, my strength is lower, my mental cognition is lower. I make a point of getting outside every day, once you surrender to this medication you may never recover. Somedays, like today I get breakthroughs where I feel like my old cocky self again, this is a few times it has happened. Im am registered to do a software testing course and tiling course in september. I feel like I have to make effort to beat this thing, being idle is the enemy of recovery. I want to metabolize this stuff right out of my body and I believe exercise and nature play the important role in succeeding. I get my last 25mg shot on monday, then its fasting, zeolite detox, exercise and love all the way to recovery. Best of luck to everyone.

But I guess you sleep.

It is really horrible to be nights and nights without sleeping. Every day is the same day. And I cannot keep active even less do a class of any type.

How many days are you going to fast?

I don't know why I took it so bad. Nobody is taking it as bad as me.

I sleep because I use High dose melatonin even then my sleep is disturbed. Most days I go out im tired, I live alone so I have to make an effort to go out. My marriage ended recently too. I have every reason to go under but ill try to survive and thrive as best I can.
I'll do intermittent fasting until I recover, followed by a detox protocol.
Exercise at your own speed, keeping up with others is just too difficult on invega.
 
I also have hella trouble sleeping to be fair

I just quit delorazepam last night and attempted to sleep through just valerian and melatonin pills but it seems I'm still not recovered enough and ended up spending almost all night awake. It's not affecting me today but who knows, my mind might seriously suffer from sleep deprivation if it keeps going for the next days

Even using high dose melatonine I don't sleep. My longterm companion left me when I got sick.

Almost all night awake is not my case. I do spend all night awake. It destroyed my ability to sleep. I really don't know what to do. This is killing me
 
I am so depressed that it is difficult for me to evaluate this cold bath that I took. But it seems to have helped me anyway, I feel more optimistic. not neglect, I think I would do one every day.

I feel better with this cold bath
That is really exciting to hear!! Did you do it again today? I'm curious to know if it helped again?

It works, I was doing cold showers around 9C temperature for 1 month but now I am stopping because it causes back issues for me.
Oh wow that is really cool to hear! It's a shame you couldn't continue because of your back. Was it your too cold on your kidneys, perhaps? That could cause back ache?

Great advice <3 Sorry to hear about your marriage ending, I hope you're coping okay with that?
 
I am very desperate. Today I hardly ate. I am not hungry since xeplion anyways. The doctor forgot to prescribe me the benzos but anyways she explained me nothing about the dangers of benzos or withdrawal. I used to sleep 3 hours but without the benzos I have slept nothing, even if I took one more of the other somnífers. I think they have killed me. I was really fine before xeplion They should have never given it to me. And now I have prescribed 6mg of Risperdal that I don't take. I never had schizophrenia I just had a mild case of psychosis that could have been treated with psychotherapy. I should have never been recluded in that hospital where my family took me. They should never have kept me because I was not a danger for me or anyone. They have terribly injured me. I get I would get a seizure for not sleeping. How can psychiatrists be so bad? How can destroy people like this? And how can my family still trust them after what they have done to me? I feel so helpless.
 
As a survivor of Invega Sustenna poison for one year or even more, I can tell you it does get better, guys... No anhedonia for me anymore, nor any restlessness, akathesia, etc... Like I was before...

Except for the fact that I am taking Haldol injections for some reason, which has impaired my ability to excersize and function, as well as in reading... But that is something to discuss on another day. Hang in there, guys... It does get better.

I was, but I would advise you to pray a lot. Ask God for help, it always works for me. Alhemdullilah. We have a saying, as muslims, that prayers can change the tides of a battle... And they can also change your life and hasten recovery...

*Just my 2 cents on the matter, ty for listening...

How Many fucking shot did you have?do you healed at 100%?
 
How Many fucking shot did you have?do you healed at 100%?
I was on and off of it for 2+ years, but I'd say around 12-15 shots was the mean range of how much I took, yh...

I healed 100% as far as I can tell, and anything else that I still have, such as lack of reading is from the Haldol, which I am quitting cold turkey this month.

I will be watching myself carefully though. If I get any adverse reactions such as hyperactivity or mania, I will take a small dose of the shot just to keep things aligned with sanity... For the sake of not getting put back in the psychiatric ward. You feel me?

So... How are you doing?

Damn, that must be really hard on you, bro. I feel you. Been there, but thank God I didn't do that too... The suicide I mean.

It gets easier with time... Soon enough you'll hit a plateau and it'll get far better now then ever before, after you hit that mark. And one day you will be feeling great again, have faith... Always.
 
Never give up hope, no matter the circumstanses. It does get better; I'm living proof of that statement.

I was nearly about to suicide once before, and I had the suicidal intrusive thoughts too and it was terrible, but that has all gone away now, alhemdullilah. Thank God for that, in other words.

I'm going to try. I no longer have this connection to God 🤦‍♂️. this poison is the worst in the world. I guess that connection to God has come back to you
