Totally recovered from Risperidone and everything else. Currently on Lamotrigine and Quetiapine.
Hang on guys, everything gonna be alright! =)

Lamotrigine (antiepileptic) could potentially symptomatically decrease some of invega side effects while it will likely just do that temporally, so it's not a long term solution, it also can not repair synaptic damage.

Why are you taking Quetiapine? Quetiapine is slowing down synaptic recovery, so after you build tolerance to antiepileptics, then they won't help you with the side effects anymore. Quetiapine makes you not progress in recovery.

Anhedonia, depression, derealization/despersonalization, alogia, anxiety, no libido, etcetera.
Since taking Risperidone my brain was fucked. Tried Abilify, Lithium Carbonate, Depakote, Trazodone, Wellbutrin... but this combination that I mentioned bought me back to my normal self.

Trazodone can't do shit. Depakote might help in beginning since it decreases programmed cell death, but I can't recommend it. Wellbutrin doesn't work for most people here, or it just gives them more issues.

It was probably just TIME that healed you from risperidone not more APs

Mechanism of action from Abilify is mostly partial agonist which in theory for some people could help to push invega leftovers out of receptors if taken in small dose for less than a week after like 1 year off, BUT I repeat - only IN theory.

Seroquel which he is taking can't do any good, but it's considered a weak AP. He is probably taking low doses or intersection with the antiepileptic is decreasing the effects.

Other stuff he mentioned isn't AP-s.
 
It took mass death halfway across the world for me to give a shit about world events again, but uh here I am. It makes me feel a little like my old self. I'm caring again.

I'm going in for a PCOS ultrasound and more hormone testing in two weeks. I'm on my way to fixing the hormonal imbalance I have.
 
is it an improvement that i was 24/7 suicidal for 3 months and now am not? i still get very anxious about what if i dont recover and about the future but i went from suicidal and brain dead lobotomized to retarded and bored and dull and anhedonic i hope the next stage is recovering emotions and comes soon in like hopefully within 3 months
 
apsucks is a liar says he recovered 80 percent with no anhedonia and could enjoy everything 2 years off invega then goes on to say he never recovered but of course you got ruined again with abilify!

I follow him on Reddit and he’s screwed up by antipsychotics and has stated numerous times he’s never recovered from anything.

i dont give a fuck, he is lying he said what i said above buddy he fucking said it himself that he recovered from invega then abilify screwed him he didnt recover from that i have a screenshot of what he said his reddit got banned too😂 so did his bluelight for doing things that are too fucked up to mention
 
Im going insane right now. Its day 109 and I can't stand being alive. Literally feel so robbed. I was in really fucking good shape I worked out 2 times a day and was on feet all day for my job. (barista) and took really good care of my health. From the dystonia I had when first injected and inactivity this caused me I have lost all my muscle and body. I am a potato. I don't like this.
Have 2 job interviews tomorrow. I have not worked since the week before my hospitalization. I am not ready to work. Every morning I feel like Ive been hit by a truck. Have no energy no matter what I do. Can't feel pleasure. Still. Ive emptied my checking and am halfway through savings and my I need to move out again so I don't have a choice. I miss emotions so bad. I hope people that say they recovered 100 percent are sure about that. Because I want 100 percent I don't want 90 I miss myself.
 
I'm constantly beating myself up over getting invega when I KNEW it could have been really really bad for me. I only got it because I thought I was going to die. The feeling that I was going to die was wearing off just before I got it, I was just starting to feel safe in the mental hospital and I almost changed my mind, but it was too late. I am probably infertile now, I won't be able to have a baby without a lot of help. It does worsen PCOS and I probably had mild PCOS before all of this. All of my reproductive hormones are really low almost 7 months later. Before I was at least functional after struggling for years with undiagnosed IBD.


I just hope the multiple organ failure/suicide part of my little prophecy doesn't come to pass. If I somehow get organ failure on top of all of this shit I will just tap out. Done.


I also hope my PSSD isn't forever.

its still in your system at a pretty high amount so just keep checking paliperidone blood levels every few months until its 0-1 ng/ml then wait hopefully a few weeks to a few months and you should start recovering then

Well, it could be if you had PCOS before invega and I probably do. I'm getting an actual diagnosis of that soon. But if it was purely PCOS, my estrogen and progesterone would be high and it's not. I also had Prozac which can disrupt estrogen production.

i have normal FSH at least, which means I have eggs and I probably don't have total ovarian failure, but it's also stuck at a sub-ovulation level. My ovaries have just stopped making enough estrogen and progesterone and the hormones triggered by it. I hope hormone replacement therapy will save me here.
