I didn't get the dopamine agonists,I'm not even sure if she knows a lot about them. I tried testing her secretly by asking what brupopion is and she didn't the other name of the drug. Felt she was avoiding the question.
 
She wants me to talk to the person that caused all this despite already giving her confirmation. She says she believes but she's asking questions like this. What a deceptive person.you guys thought on this?
 
Are there any drugs for blurred vision? Is it safe to visit an eye doctor?

When I was doing tonnes of research on my Invega shot I read somewhere that Invega works by little nanoparticle crystals binding to our dopamine and serotonin receptors and blocking them so dopamine and serotonin can't reach them and that it binds so tightly that the receptors need to be regenerated when in the absence of a lot of the Invega remaining in our systems. If that's the case unfortunately the dopamine agonists unfortunately wouldn't have worked anyway because Invega binds so tightly. Unfortunately with something like Invega there's not really anything that can be done except to wait for the passage of time which sucks because it really truly is a hell on earth no human could fathom unless they themselves have experienced it.

You should have a lot of relief by the 5 month mark. Hopefully that's coming soon for you.
 

Guys I found another thing supporting the method I want to try, it says here in this site that is called the national library of medicine that dopamine agonists can be used to treat the side effects of antipsychotics. I saw it before, It is the official website of the US government
This is the link of the page where i found the information
you guys thought on this? Is there something you like to add on this?

I think it’s crazy how much stronger these injections are than the oral versions and they just convince you it’s the same thing. Like having the actual particle in your blood is totally different than your body having to break it down in your stomach/intestines. It’s just so persistent when it goes directly into your blood cause it’s lipophilic and settles in your fat and in your spinal tissue. Basically lasts forever.

I know right. It's the craziest thing. I can't actually believe this type of drug exists and is given to people who don't have severe, severe psychosis and have tried everything else first. It should be illegal to completely shut down someone's pleasure/reward system unless absolutely necessary in rare cases since you don't even feel like a human and can't do anything to pass the time. I don't even have schitzophrenia and was just over a small weed psychosis and my ridiculous doctor sold it to me as "it just lasts one month and you won't have the peaks/troughs the pills will give you!" which was so far from accurate that I will never trust a doctor ever again. It took me 5 months to feel somewhat normalish and it's sad af that I'm one of the lucky ones and a lot of people have it much worse and feel it much longer.

I heard that they are pushing injectable versions of medications a lot because doctors are getting bonuses for prescribing them. The companies give them incentives to prescribe the injections.

Mine was similar. I was not even in a full blown psychosis I just should have kept my mouth shut but I overshared my “delusions” to the doctor. It sucks. This medication is for people who hear disturbing voices or have dangerous delusions and that’s IT. It should not be prescribed to anyone else.
 
Everyone is able to sleep like babies
Just not me

Chest pain that wakes me up when I’m trying to sleep

And a blocked nose that’s honestly the worst thing anyone could experience

I just can’t wait for 6 months to come through although it’s only been a month for me so that I can feel better fingers crossed that mark I will feel good

I was trying to write today and it was so not rewarding or fulfilling at all. It’s torture not being able to channel this feeling into anything. The very concept of coping mechanisms relies on dopamine and without that how do we even cope! It’s beyond fucked up

Very well put i didn't realise that until all my dopamine was gone to. It's some hellish shit that no human can understand unless they've been there.

Looking at when you had your injections you are incredibly early days. I think the stuffed nose etc will go away. Don't get surgery. This is a chemical reaction as you have the meds in your system.

I hope so, I really hope it’s a chemical reaction, it might take 4-6 months but I’m willing to wait, if it’s going to unblock my nose
