Just the recovery stories on places like SA and the people on here that have recovered … I think you will recover because you already recovered one time so in all likelihood you should recover again.
Im so much more doubtful of my recovery this time around. Last time I could laugh. I could smile and “fake it” if I needed to. This time I am completely dead inside. I can’t even smile let alone feel anything else. It scares me how damaged I am 😭

Did you have more injections or a higher dose this time around ? Maybe that’s why ? I feel the same may completely dead inside it’s absolutely horrible I know how you feel … keep going I’m sure you will get there it will just take time … SA is a forum called surviving antidepressants but there’s lots of people that had APs on there too …
 
Do you think normal people can understand how do we feel? I forgot what is like to be normal

No I don’t think anyone can understand how we feel … only the people that have experienced this nightmare …
 
It’s really not that rare bro I can think of many people that didn’t recover from injections , some killed themselves , some are clinging on to hope , I’m in a discord group where MOST people have not recovered and some have started to recover but most haven’t and I’m one of them … it’s not rare far from it unfortunately
didnt you have a very dangerous first gen injection which started with z or x?
 
Anyone else feel like they won't heal anymore? It's almost a year off the injection for me and i didn't notice any changes, neither good nor bad. This damage feels like it's part of me now. I don't smile anymore, can't cry, can't experience emotions, can't experience pleasure continuously, suffer from sexual dysfunction. Nothing ever changes for me. I'm full of regret for ever ending up like this. Healing is a lie.

I'm just baffled that a drug like this that ruins and tortures your life is allowed to exiat. I'm suffering from my life every single day, having arguments and melt downs with my mom. It's just not cool that these drugs exist, they should be banned.

"healing is a lie" just shut up stop fucking saying that shit over and over no one gives a fuck if you think healing is a lie because it isn't true you and others similar to you are causing people on here to commit suicide but of course you don't give a fuck and you will keep spreading hopelessness to make others commit suicide we don't need you on here because the only thing you come on here to do is spread hopelessness to make people commit suicide other people who didn't recover aren't like you only coming here to spread hopelessness and make people kill themselves faster please just SHUT UP im tired of your bullshit you and people like you make mine and other peoples lives more hell by making us lose hope when we are trying to recover we dont need that shit here!

Yeah, last time it was olanzapine and abilify but I only took them for a month. This time it was 4 injections of invega followed by 4 months of rexulti which I’m still weaning off. Massive difference. I’m still going to try an antidepressant to see if that will work because it’s what saved my ass last time

if you recovered once you should recover again
 
i hope i have natural erections more frequently i remember the same thing happened for laughing 2 months off i started laughing rarely now i laugh everyday not as much or as hard as i used to but i do laugh sometimes pretty hard like yesterday for example so i hope in a few months i have natural erections much more frequently so i can finally say i have big improvement and that im starting to recover

You are concionsly making your brain in to soup? Whyyyy That is all poison😭
 
Guys if I was to get my hormones tested to see what’s been damaged which ones should I check?
Prolactin, estradiol, testosterone, luteinizing hormone, follicle stimulating hormone, thyroid stimulating hormone.

Didn't you say you got a period two months later? I wouldn't be too worried. I was worried because I hadn't gotten mine and I think I had a cyst that burst and bled a month after invega. I still haven't gotten mine yet, but I know I will. I went in for a PCOS diagnosis and I have a dominant follicle and that means I'm going to ovulate. It's been 7 months for me.

I'd be careful with SSRIs coming off of antipsychotics. Take the lowest effective dose. I got PSSD because I was dumb and smoked weed on prozac, raising the amount of prozac in my body until my clit went numb and then I had a bad withdrawl I didn't expect.

Are ssris/snris more dangerous coming off of antipsychotics? The reason I wanna try taking them is because they pulled me out of anhedonia and blank mind last time completely… so I was gonna try the same dose

My brother is a doctor and he laughed and was like “that is such a guy thing to think- no. It does not shrink the tissue”
