Pregabalin is very addictive, that's why they talk about it like they can't live without it. They are most likely addicted to it and suffer withdrawal symptoms if they don't take it. I don't know. I don't know how much they take or how frequently. But I DO know that it is addictive.


May I please ask that whenever quoting studies, that you please include the source of the data. Thank you.


This sounds awesome! Please let us know how it went!


Me too. I think about him multiple times a day. My mind fears the worst but I'm still hoping that he turns up in here again one day and posts again <3


I personally appreciate your posts, and I welcome you to continue to contribute your positivity in this thread. It is very much needed, amongst all of the discouraged feelings, hopelessness and negativity.


Yes I would definitely say that is a sign of improvement! Very encouraging <3


The ebbs and flows of the thread. A few pages ago everyone was all very supportive towards each other. Something took a turn, I don't know what exactly. But I've cleaned up a lot of the mess.


Never is a very very long time. Please just hang in there and have faith that you will recover <3


Do you have any actual data or peer-reviewed articles to support these statements? They are big claims to make.


Can you please just let it go? Thank you.


I have just spent over 1.5 hours cleaning up this thread of off-topic posts, and antagonistic, argumentative, inflammatory posts. Can we please stop and remember that this thread is to SUPPORT EACH OTHER through the recovery process after being administered Invega and other potent APs? We are NOT here to argue about the validity of each other's jobs, incomes, IQs, or anything else trivial or personal like that.

Please keep the discussion on topic of your recovery from Invega, side effects, withdrawals, tips to help each other get through it etc.

Thank you.

Another interesting one

«I honestly don’t think any antipsychotic drugs is the solution. They’re all the same, just with different side effects.
I think mental illness needs to cured holistically through fasting, meditation, change in lifestyle and diet and mindfulness. Journaling also helps, that way we can read our thoughts from the past and see when we start going astray.
I have just started a 30 day fast to rejuvenate my mind and body and will let you’ll know if it helps.»

For one you cant "cure" mental illness that doesnt make sense, plus how is fasting suppose to help with schizophrenia?>

Idk dude, I just don’t believe ap’s should be long term. There has to be a way of dealing with it other than just meds

I really don’t care whether your work is more complex or not, point is you can still do it and so can I. Maybe you feel slower at your job, but some of us are able to keep working as usual.

I do not feel slower, I am slower and that's a fact. It is and was even more obvious before, but I still did measure my performance to see more precisely. Not to mention that I got measured my IQ by professionals. <edited out unnecessary comment - SMod>

It is all dependent upon how high the dose and how long you were on it. The higher doses and the longer intervals result in the most permanent damage to the dopamine receptors as they will begin to die off permanently after so long of being dormant and the brain decides that is never going to need them again. Also the ones with the longer half lives tend to build up in the system over time because when the drug takes 6 plus days to exit your system and you take the same dose every 24 hours then over time you have way more built up than up than your dose suggests. This is going to accelerate the damage also. It’s been proven in brain scans that long term use of antipsychotics results in loss of brain matter and we actually see the brain shrink. They will eventually make you so apathetic and indifferent that you have no interest in life and turn out laying in bed for 3 years like I did before you realize that’s never the way you felt until these meds robbed you of your motivation and inspiration and left you in a vegetative state of isolation and the scariest part is you almost didn’t know what was happening and had you listened to the doctors you would’ve been on that rubbish The rest of your miserable life and never got your life back. It’s criminal.

It is still accounting and tax. Basically writing numbers and text, adding entries, checking, very repetitive job.

Again with this? I’m past the entry level stuff kiddo. Tax that I do is half of the work. Mergers and acquisitions, due dilligence, vat, transfer pricing, you even know what any of this is? Last thread I read you were 18. If that’s true you still have a lot to learn! What do I care whether you’re smart or rich anyway? We have the same goal of getting healthier, let’s end this discussion and get back on topic. This is getting us nowhere.

Why? Is it because I'm a fighter and have strong willpower and endurance while also being realistic and not giving people false hope while still giving them hope which is reather realistic without some devaluations? I exercise every day, run 8miles almost every day, take a walks every day, socialize every day, do activities, do demanding and complex job, have a good and balanced diet, etc

My point is, I do everything I CAN and there's nothing more that I can do, and he calls my mindset "doom and gloom".
Even if someone isn't doing things like me people still continue recovering, and sometimes even at faster pace than me.

It is also up to genetics.
