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

[silenthill]

How long did it take for you to recover from Invega and how many doses?

i only had one injection last year and it took around nine months for me, but i noticed a lot more improvement this may. i was able to smoke, be social, overall live a tolerable life. not perfect or 100%, but enough for me.

 

[rawbanana]

one thing that bothers me is I can’t see pictures like I used to. visual thinking and creativity, imagination is gone. that’s a spiritual aspect of life that’s just taken from me.

 

[rawbanana]

It’s not that much lower than yours. I also do not show any signs of recovery so far. My symptoms are also similar to someone with a higher dose.

My total to 624 yours is just 250. Less than half of the dose I got. Invegatorture got the same doses as you and he recovered

9 months from one shot- Geez, invega is a nasty drug. I had six shots, it seems I have a long wait ahead.

When reading fictional novels I can’t draw a clear picture of what is happening, ever since these invega shots. My concentration and cognition has taken a hit too. I miss being able to just chill out, reading a book and being able to comprehend what im reading.

Yeah it’s fucked

Yeah it’s fucked

I’ve tried to bring up this with my psychiatrist and he doesn’t believe it’s from invega! He mentioned it’s out of my system now and that it’s my ADHD being the reason I’m not focusing. I am focusing, my brain has been fried from invega. He argued saying invega is no longer at therapeutic levels- expanding on this telling me that invega shouldn’t be causing me problems anymore as it’s apparently practically out of my system, which isn’t true.

Tell them that if they shoot you in the brain and the projectile is not longer here in your brain then the damage won’t magically disappear because they removed the projectile.

These dude are psychopaths, just cut ties with them all please.

 

[Deleted member 592205]

They pretend to know lasting effects better than us even if they never tryed this shit, like dude i was the one injected but you think that you know better than me how things are going?

There is no point to see a psychiatrist until you see dragons around the sky and hear voices, you cannot pretend to be understood and get help from Who damaged you in the first place.

it's all about finding a stable ground in my opinion. even though i was 90-95% back to 'normal', i don't believe that i'll be the same as before. invega was a severely traumatizing time in my life. when you go through something that people call you crazy for, or a liar, it changes the way you see the world and others. i feel more cold and distrustful now. avoidant.

 

[Deleted member 592205]

It’s like been cheated but still want to share your emotions with that girl who cheated on you, there is no point in doing that, that person don’t care if you get hur and don’t care how you feel, he will blame you for everything, just cut ties with them.

i always think of this. if you want to look at me crazy because my words don't align with 'science', then please go ahead and inject yourself with some invega. if it's gone in 28 days like you say, you should be back to normal right?

28 days of elimination + 30-45 days of recycling receptors that are blocked, so we had to recover in 2.5months.

Long ago they called “crazy” people who tought earth was not flat, they called “crazy” those who tought earth was not the center of the universe.

I can tell you that risperdal consta elimination time was 13 months for me, because at 13 month mark i got tinnitus.

Tinnitus is the brain balance that is in “chaos” mode and because of that hear noise that are not from the outside but the inside (tinnitus, ringing in the ear).

These big pharma lying about lasting effects and elimination time in order to make these injection been approved to the market and got lot of money from them.

That’s how these drugs should work. Not 200+ days of elimination (invega) I hope I heal earlier, but I have severe doubts.

And they keep inject people every 2 weeks (in my case) or every months when one injection lasting effect is 1 year - 1.5 year.

As i said, they fooled us and played our trust, there is no point by seeing a psychiatrist anymore until like me you are in touch with a researcher psychiatrist from the university unit hospital.

Next time a psychiatrist give you a diagnosis Just ask him “can you prove your diagnosis? Like with a brain scan or a RM? No? You cannot prove that the illnes you are blaming me to have is here in my brain? Ok..”

I will trust you that day when you can prove your diagnosis like every doctor do, until that day you are not a doctor.

That’s what baffles me. If one invega injection lasts longer than one month- why is it we need monthly injections. Profits these pharmaceutical companies make is all I can think of.

I was better off in my psychosis than how I’m feeling now. Who knows maybe one day, the effects from invega will diminish and I’ll appreciate life a lot more. Doubt it though considering I had six injections.

We are paying the price of capitalism. That’s all. If they won’t let these big pharma make money with these injections they won’t push them so bad to everyone.

They discover a money glitch by false diagnose someone and out him in these injections, and they keep doing that.

 

[Matthew01]

recovered to the point of feeling normal and alive again from invega in 2024, then decided to further my troubles. i thought using trazodone and weed together would benefit me, since it helped me stay asleep, and i thought i was 100% good now. until one day it left me sweating, shaking, vomiting, etc. with a two week span of intense energy. i'm not sure if that was psychosis but it felt decent. i sit here two months later from that incident and i get muscle bumps and tremors, high blood pressure, intense anxiety even when going to simple chill places, things like that. that high energy is long gone. i'm an idiot for playing with fire after a lucky recovery, but this bottle of cyproheptadine seems to be doing the bare minimum. do i have serotonin syndrome or have i fried my brain beyond repair this time. oh well. been sober since then but no telling when this constant pain will fade. i don't know if what i'm feeling even has a diagnosis / name.

Hey. How many injections did you receive?

 

[Deleted member 592205]

My family is still blaming weed (that I don’t smoke since 16 months) for my sympthoms (that came out the day after the first injection) saying that I have psychosis. (?).

Just imagine you have to deal with all our sympthoms and when you reach family because you need support they blame weed for everything and psychosis (that i never had in my life).

This is so cringe for real, hope they get a cancer soon.

 

[InvegaInferno]

So.. 18 months is the finish Line?

Not necessarily, but possibly. There are those who've recovered after two years, we have to keep that in mind.
