I wonder how hell phase is going to be like, because it's been like hell since I started this injection :D

It's suppose to be the same as being on the injections, and gradually getting better.
For me it was hell phase mainly because of Akathisia, which slowly disappeared. I always felt like I have a rush to go places or do things and couldn't sit still. Was aweful.
I hope you don't have that...

I'm taking Procyclidine 5mg, for Akathisia which I will cut down to 2.5mg when I'm off the injection and 1-2 months later I'll stop taking procyclidine, & be med free.
My Dr, also prescribed me Propranolol 10mg but I never took it, apparently it's suppose to be good for Akathisia. I just didn't want more side effects

I also been prescribed Propranolol for the Akathisia from the injections. Didn't help at all.
All these drugs are harmful.
This is how big pharma make their money, you get a drug for side effects, which adds up more side effects and therefore more drugs and so on...

I also had this but did not recognize it as akathesia at the time
 
I would honestly much rather thorazine/largactil over invega or abilify. Atleast i can still get it up on thorazine and it goes pretty good with morphine

How long are off since your last shot?
Currently on any other meds?
I lost my connection with spirituality since being injected, which makes me sad...

7 and a half years.
Just Zyprexa
Same was the case for me. Didn't even notice it at first after they shot me up with Risperdal Consta.

Recently felt some pain at the injection site on my left arm. Not sure what it was--or if it was Invega-related.
I had a lot of shots too. It was about 13 or 14 altogether on Invega.

So you currently on Zyprexa? Doesn't it make you extremely hungry and fat? cuz it did for me when I took it for around 3 weeks and stopped. I lost my weight only after a month off.

Do you feel spiritual connection or magical sensations from being in nature for example? is it back?
 
Sometimes people post negative things cause they feel the need too vent it’s alright to do that but saying it’s impossible for anyone too recover just cause you haven’t recovered makes no sense we all process and metabolize these drugs differently, I’m living proof that you recover from this medicine I’ve come so far I’m about 80% healed I think another month or two I’ll be 100% I might stick around to help give people hope.
 
Lol I don’t need everyone coming to peoples rescue on here it’s sad I said one thing when I was getting treated unfairly

I ain’t see anything wrong with your posts I understand why you would feel negative I mean who wouldn’t after 17 shots the only post you said that I disagreed with was when you said it permanently damages your brain and that people don’t recover they just learn to tolerate it.

It made me a little chubby, I guess.

Yes. I'm finally at a point where I can do energy work again.

The brain is quite resilient. I've heard it can recover rather quickly when--say--stopping alcohol, for instance.
