On the subject of hobbies , I moved recently and found an old sketchbook of mine that I was using when I was injected with invega. I thought it was interesting to see the difference in my ability after receiving the drug.

And before all you skeptics say invega ruined my ability, keep in mind that before I was hit with invega I had a goal to be a professional artist - I was drawing for hours per day and doing cons. I haven't been doing that again until very recently.
YES, you do recover your interests & passion for things.
