A link to everyone experiencing antipsychotic withdrawals. Just in case you need to show your doctors so they believe it’s real and not necessarily your illness.

Yeah ive never tapered off meds, i always just got off them cold turkey like i dod this time. I dont think i experienced any withdrawals. Being off feels the same like being on, but the difference is you are gradually getting better, ive heard withdrawal stories but i havnt experienced any.
 
“Meditation on inevitable death should be performed daily. Every day when one’s mind and body are at peace, one should meditate on being ripped apart by arrows, rifles, spears, and swords, being carried away by surging waves, being thrown into the midst of a great fire, being struck by lightning, being shaken to death by a great earthquake, falling from thousand foot cliffs, dying of disease or committing seppuku at the death of one’s master. And every day without fail, one should consider himself as dead.” - Hagakure, The Book of the Samurai
 
Hi guys I got two injections of invega and I'm experiencing loss of libido and seriously reduced volume of ejaculate.

Has anybody recovered their libido and ejaculate volume? How long did it take?

Someone please respond I'm really worried

Recovery time is different for everyone, but some people say it takes six months for a bit of return for libido. If you're very early off the injections, like only a month, then you will barely have any ejaculate (volume improves with time).

Does libido ever recover fully? I've been off it for 3 months now and my ejaculate volume hasn't changed, its still almost nothing.

Will my life ever be the same?

Some people have recovered and regained their ability to get high off weed. I hope we will recover too.
 
I'm not saying that you should do it or anything but there's people that think that taking low doses of psilocybin mushrooms should be a part of everybody's recovery from psychiatric drugs..
 
Sexual dysfunction from invega also means low testosterone right?
I think high prolactin lowers your testosterone.
Because since I got the injections, I feel like a weak child instead of a man. I also became less "ballsy" and more fearful if you know what I mean.

Do you feel exhausted throughout the day? Also, how is your sleep?

I became significantly weaker physically and I feel like walking on foot for certain distances is a great task, but I can still function though.
I sleep my 6 hours I can say, but once I wake up, I can't go back to sleep anymore. I rarely able to take a nap midday.
Before the injections, I could sleep for hours if I wanted too and could easily fall asleep.
 
I've been lied to that Xeplion has no side effects, now, I'm lying to them that I take my pills, so I guess we are even...

I was completely impotent the first two months, then after that I definatly wasent but I didnt have much libido since I felt so extremely sick because of Invega, then 2.5 months after I wasent impotent anymore I got the covid-shot that messed me up completely i think it put even more invega to my brain since I got the covid in the same place I hade the Invega, which made me sort of semi-impotent for quite some time and caused alot of other issues. I got the xeplion/invega shot in the in beginning of april last year but for the past 3 months I have been starting to feel better and better and less dead. My libido is also slowly improving I think. The best u can do is to stay of any more injections. Taking someones libido away is the worst anyone can do to someone, the doctors have no idea what they are putting people through. Please remember that invega is designed to stay in your system and block your dopamine receptors so u cant produce endorphines but also to dissapear eventually and it takes a different amount of time for everyone. It will get better and when it does it will become easier and easier to cope with the distress of having Invega hang in there.

Thanks. How many injections did you have? Did you completely lose your libido? When did you stop the injections? And how long did it take for your libido to come back?

I had one injection but I wasent psycotic and it hit me extremely hard. After two months when I got my erections back I was jerking off 3-4 times a day since boner wouldnt go down when I was watching tv, and I was also thinking alot about girls but I wouldnt call that libido since I was only home laying on the couch. I think my libido just about recently is coming back in a simliar way it was before Invega. I was very mad for a long time after the covid-shot and my cock and my armpits smelled horrible all the time but that has gone away too. The covid shot really messed me up I starting sleeping 3-4 hours less and lost my appetite but those things are also immproving.
