at month 12 you will feel sugnificently better but you will have anhedonia witch is the the lack of pleasure when enjoyed
becuse the receptors become blocked for so long your receptores need to to recycle and repair
i just came out of a deep depression 10 min ago still feel like shit but its a sign that my receptors are not coming back but recycling back and being repaired
i cant see that happening for me i am at month 11 and nothing has improved, i still feel the same after my first injection which was december 2022 . i had four in total two december 2022 one january 2023 my last one was february 2023. i am see no improvements, how can you tell your receptors are coming back, i dont think you can.
 
I feel like shit my dick is numb my feelings are noneexistenit I can’t feel alcohol or even coke I’m not a drug addict just sayin nothing works

I started noticing improvements after 10 months. Keep pushing
 
Hello,

I would just like to share my new improvements. I was really bad when I was writing in here. I had 2 very serious suicide attemps. I was in a psych ward for a total of 6 months in 2023. I got Clozapine and ECT. Everything was looking horrible till I got a naturopathy treatment from the 23rd of November. Since then I've been able to feel joy again and I am watching Netflix series. Before that I was just looking at the ceiling and suffering. So I have hope again about a possible recovery eventhough I am taking Clozapine which is a very strong APS.

I am far from recovery and I would like to know how many people, who were seriously injured, are back to work. Because I don't think that I can hold a job in my state.

It's called a process addiction, getting better is similar route to other addictions. Find an alternative to fill your time, find a bigger purpose in life, exercise, shit like that.

I am not taking any kind of medication like that. I take trileptal, Prozac, and remeron. Don't have any issues. Used to take Seroquel, zyprexa, abilify, and a bunch of other shit. Didn't have any issues besides weight gain and anhedonia. Went away for the most part when I stopped.
 
I hate my life. I mean “oh in so grateful i live my life😁✌️👌
I know im not supposed to say that. But wprking after getting invega shots is so fucking hard.. work never has been hard for me. I cant think!! I have no motivation.
I have no vice/escape/saving grace!!!!
No music!!!!
No caffeine!!!!
No walking!!!!!
Ahhhh!!!!!
I have no friends or anything and my dad wants me out of the house by june. How the fuck am I supposed to live w randos and deal w life by myself without dopamine or litterally anything to make me happy just for a moment. I cant takethis!!! How do i just give up?
 
I’m so sad for you, you’re suffering even more than I am and that’s really saying something. Can I just say I know stories of people who couldn’t even talk because of antipsychotic damage who have made full recoveries… I have hope for you too but I can fully understand you just wanting it to be over with the amount of suffering you’re going through 😭 I’ve thought of you and prayed for you a few times. Even though I’ve lost faith in god.
Dude it gets better there's always that light at the end of the tunnel/ ie. I think we'll all get better soon.

Just try to show that you’re stable so your doctor will take you off the medication you’re on and in time you will feel things more normal again

get off that shit poison clozapine and youll improve much more
 
Today I had my first day of work at the grocery store after not really working for a year. I was just watching training videos on the computer for four hours. I used to work at a grocery store stocking shelves before which is what I'll be doing here, and it's probably gonna be full-time paying $18.85 an hour. That's over 30K a year.

I was strung out on drugs going in and the day sucked and dragged on but made it through. One of the training videos I had to watch it even talked about what to do if there's an active shooter just shooting the place up, with the last resort being to try to gang up on them and attack them ha. Didn't except to see a video like that at all. We'll see how this job and my drug habit goes. They didn't drug test me but I've had a whole bunch of mostly part-time jobs in the past and hardly any of them did either.
 
I've had many injections but I don't really see any other options with work than to just power through it. The drugs help too. I'm also trying to work out more and to do fasting and eat small meals. I'm a tall big dude with muscle too. I'm kind of a misanthrope and don't really like dealing with people for too long though, it's usually just a matter of time before they say something stupid. We'll see how it goes though.
 
you must be just one of the luck ones then that has pulled through, i have been off 11 months and nothing has improved, i only had four injections of that poison, i cant carry on being like this anymore, its complete shit, i cant cope anymore , i cant do this
I feel you man.. some people dont recover much in the first 12 months, but they recovery ALOT in the 2nd year... Keep at you will be fine at the end trust me

Everyones recovery time is different from what ive seen. I recovered pretty fast i guess it took about a year or more total though. Now i am back to more then 100%

Hey Nina,

What was the naturopathy treatment you had? Would love to know. Also what were your symptoms before, did you have total anhedonia and blank mind? Have you recovered any sleep?
