Thanks buddy said:
Hi! I already posted my recovery story on this thread but I forgot to post one thing which is that I really do think that someone can experience psychosis after coming off Invega. I writing this because I read on a previous page someone saying that you will never experience psychosis if you took Invega and I really don’t think that is true because I went off my meds for two days and I really started drifting into psychosis. This proves that the effects of Invega do wear away and that it does not permanently prevent psychosis. Emotions definitely have returned and as much as I hate Invega and don’t want to even think about it, sometimes I miss feeling numb. But I know in my heart that numbing everything is not the answer and I am doing my best to deal with the turbulent emotions that go along with having bipolar disorder and being a trauma survivor. Overall, what I am trying to say is don’t believe everything you read here. Be careful when you are coming off Invega as symptoms can return. Again, wishing the best for all of you people. Stay strong and hopeful!

So if psychosis is returning that means the dopamine receptors are working, flooding dopamine into the mind then? Right

I drank 2 cups of coffee today and I’m extremely sensitive to the effects of caffeine now I got an insane amount of energy from it I was kind of uncomfortable and jittery I went to the gym and hit chest and triceps and got so much done I also sprinted around the track a couple times I’m started to get ripped again I can bench press around 250 now it’s crazy how far I’ve come in recovery anything’s possible guys we can all recovery from this medicine I’m honestly glad god made me go through the invega challenge hitting the depths of rock bottom like that changed me from an stupid ass kid to a grown mature adult I’m much more responsible now and don’t do reckless dumb things like hard drugs the highs I got weren’t worth the cost.

that’s awesome!!! I’ve been doing hard workout too! Despite being on latuda! It feels great! Wish the results would come in faster though! I know if I was off latuda it’d be result City! Keep up the good work!

Glad to hear that it feels great, that’s a good sign that you’re recovering if you feel good after exercising the results don’t always come through fast but keep working hard they’ll still come with time.

Actually psychosis or schizophrenia according to new studies turns out te be a lack of dopamine

I don't understand how you all discuss coming off this drug.

I've come off invega twice and it felt amazing but afterwards I get into some kind of trouble and they put me back on it.

Even before the last 2 times I got off invega was the time I got off risperidone and also got myself into trouble which led to invega for about 3 years until I carefully got off it. But not careful enough.

I'm back on it now again.

be carefull you get rebound psychosis when you go off the drug which can take a year or two to heal. Its difficult tp stay out of trouble while having invega withdrawal symptoms that can last up to two years or more. Stay out of trouble during the withdrawal period(recovery) dont use drugs and dont engage people. Just do everything you can to stay out of human conflicts or conflicts of interest.

Also these anti psychotics CAUSE psychosis themself im people who are not psychotic or schizophrenic. Abilfy caused psychosis the first two months after first injection including binge spending, sexual deviantcy (including gay shit) and a whole list of issues. I reccommend listening to peter breggin these drugs cause the symptoms they are prescribed to treat. Google the dopamine supersensitivity.

Get off these drugs and avoid contact with most people especially people working for the system and join a local church or mosque.

For me haldol injections and mistreatment caused me severe withdrawal ..i never had psychosis before until i started having haldol withdrawals which caused me to get injected with invega. Shit creates an endless cycle

The break throughs won’t start happening until months after…hopefully they happen for you! My suggestions are eat clean and workout a lot! Go for a lot of walks and try to distract yourself. I bury myself in fitness. Did you have psychosis in the first place? I read a lot on Reddit that people don’t start feeling normal until two years after Invega Sustenna, they say it took them two years to recover fully. But I dunno, ppl on here say nine months and so on so who really knows.

Its two years total...for me improvements happen at month six, month nine ...emotions take longest to get back fully. I could remember counting down days on invega...im so glad i smoked weed daily on invega even tho it didnt got me any euphoria it countered some of the anhedonia, side effects and pain and made time pass by faster.

Yeah high without euphoria..just sedation so to speak i vaped up to 2 grams daily sometimes more up to four grams when feeling suicidal. It really helps when time goes faster..thanks to weed i could stay in bed 24/7 and watch youtube videos all day without much anhedonia.

Right now i cannot even play a videogame on abilify because i get tested i cant smoke weed anymore which sucks

It is strange that weed works on invega but not xeplion.

I wish you the best mate
 
Xeplion and invega are the same xeplion is dosed a bit higher
150mg of xeplion is 235 mg of invega if i recall correctly

micro dosing magic mushrooms or LSD can help anhedonia and they’re undetectable in the urine after 24 hours usually but I’d play it safe and not micro dose atleast a few days before you get tested, mushrooms usually leave your system in 24 hours LSD can take up to 96 hours.

Well that could be true, cos first time they put me in hospital ,i wasnt experiencing psychosis, it was a bad kundalini awakening with some psychosomatic issues , and then they put me on zpyrexa then i quit ,after 7-8 months i experienced psychosis...doctor just denied the kundalini situation and convinced my family to it wass all made up by me...douchebag
 
I mean duhh?...just google it bro,there are thousands of cases ,about the kundalini ...those guys re so dogmathic believers to modern science that become some sort of religion ...
 
So guys it's been 6 days off the injection, I felt a little better today, I don't get dizzy when I standup anymore I think thats going away. Yeah overall I feel better today compared to otherdays. Looks like I am recovering on day 6
