Mental Health Coming off Invega/Xeplion (paliperidone) injections v. 10

The bastards gave me two injections in my glutes not my arm so it’s still in my system presumably

Thanks. I’m trying to find his posts. They gave me a crazy cocktail of pills as well and when they found out I wasn’t taking the abilify they shot me with 400mg of abilify. I cannot feel thirst or hunger or emotions or anything in my nervous system. I was a musician before and an artist and I’m a mother and what they have done to me is disgusting. I’ve called a lawyer and they said it is medical negligence. Australia is really terrible for mental health. I had a referral put in by my doctor for a private clinic but it took too long and I just couldn’t take not sleeping anymore so called an ambulance for rest and looking back I wish I chained myself to my bed. I’m losing hope rapidly. I need some hope :(

The only downside is I don’t have full range of emotion. Like they are more subtle which can also be looked at as a positive. If anyone is really struggling just know that I had the 2 injections + ect and was thrown on 20+ meds last year. Recovery is possible

What kind of psychiatric symptoms are you feeling? They can usually be treated. But make sure you can give informed consent before taking any new prescription.

Hey guys I’m just checking In again. Life has been really busy for me and I’ve been able to actually live again. Lifting has never felt better. I work 40 hours a week. Caffeine has its full effects on me. Just feel overall amazing. 90% recovered!!

Do you still have sexual dysfunction? Just a yes or no is fine. I'm scared it will never be the same for me, and I know we both had an SSRI withdrawal while on invega.

I can’t feel my nervous system anymore… it’s hard to articulate.. like touch is different and massage and stretching and everything just doesn’t feel right. Like I’m disconnected from my body. It’s the scariest thing ever.
 
Man… These long acting injections are so immoral. The psychiatrists who prescribe them should be held accountable for all the lives they ruin… My life will never be the same and I don’t even know if I can sue
 
Yeah. They are monsters. I rang a lawyer the other day and they said it definitely was medical negligence. They have no idea the damage they are doing to innocent people that don’t even have schizophrenia. We have to keep positive but it’s so fucking hard. Message anytime. I don’t even feel connected to my body and brain anymore. It’s so immoral and inhumane and unjust. We have a right to feel emotions. How dare they fucking take it away

I feel disconnected from my body too. Like the sensations I should feel in my body are numbed out… it’s a crime. And nobody understands. My family doesn’t understand they think I’m overreacting and I don’t know how to show them. I just feel really alone. And I don’t see a light at the end of the tunnel. Sort of like I’m just moving through a life that’s already over. I hope I die soon honestly.

Edit: I’m trying to stay positive I’m just having a hard time… some days are better than others

Keep hanging on. When we get out of the other end it’s going to be amazing. What’s your name? I’m here for you. I am sitting outside and finally feel the sun on my face. Haven’t felt that for eight months. We have to not let these fuckers win and do a class action and sue them. Don’t let them win. We have to keep going even though it’s fucking hellish. No one understands unless they have been through it. Keep holding on. Sending love and light… Alana
 
Hi Alana. I’m a little afraid to share my name. I feel the same way about hopefully getting out of this and coming out the other side even better than before. I don’t know though. It feels impossible. Like a foolish hope sometimes. It’s hard to see a light at the end of the tunnel. I was pretty depressed before this even happened so it’s been feeling impossible now…

It’s a completely messed up system and as a society we place too high of an authority on doctors and let them do whatever they want. Especially in the mental health field. I just feel like I should’ve known better and said no but when they gave me the shot I wasn’t in the right headspace and wasn’t thinking clearly. I just wish I’d said no and known more about it. I would be okay if I’d just said no but I felt so much pressure…when you’re in the mental hospital it doesn’t feel like you have a choice sometimes.

Anyway if I ever stop posting on here y’all will know what happened to me

Hi V. I’m here for you. I would speak to my friend in Maryland Tony everyday since May and he hasn’t been online since Thursday evening and it’s Saturday morning in Australia now. I’m really worried he gave up. We would speak everyday. Please keep hanging on. I feel the same. I stupidly rang an ambulance to help me when I was manic and not sleeping and it’s my biggest regret. I too wasn’t in the right frame of mind when they gave me two shots after a man walked into my room and was watching me sleep. They are monsters for doing what they have done to everyone on this forum. I’m going to try my hardest to sue and do a class action as this cannot keep happening around the world. Please hang on and message me anytime. I know how fucking hard this is. I’m here for you.
 
Please keep hanging on.

I really hope your friend is okay. I’m doing my best to hang on because I want a chance at life. It’s going to be a long road ahead… only been 5 months for me and I got four shots. I may never recover.

Can someone please please tell me if chronic fatigue is something they've experienced?
Click to expand...
Yes, I am going to be coming off of Invega Trinza (3 month injection) and I am constantly fatigued to the point where I can barely do anything.

I had my last injection last month and I have an appointment with my Psych Provider to discuss other options since the prior authorization for the medication I was supposed to switch to got denied.

There is another medication I could go back on that did not cause the side effects I am experiencing now (weight gain, fatigue, low sex drive, high prolactin levels, muscle stiffness in legs/ankles).
