INvega lowers your testosterone. Does anyone know if testosterone levels go back to normal after the drug leaves the body? I wonder what risperdal, rawbanana's testosterone level is right now. Also the testosterone level of people who recovered. Its a simple blood test. Both prolactin and testosterone. I hope they get it done.

I haven’t measured it but I am actively trying to get a paliperidone blood level test, but it’s proving to be difficult. My doctor hasn’t been able to order the test

Prolactin and testosterone are easy...get them done. Invega raises prolactin and lowers testosterone. A decreasing prolactin level and increasing testosterone level can indicate you are recovering. I am curious. Its a very quick test.

Why are you adamant that we are never the same? Why do you say this when some repeatedly say they have full recovery? I want to know your reasoning.

I’m just pessimistic cause it’s been so long with no recovery. I just don’t think it’s possible. I feel like I lost my chance at a good life.

Also in general I was just struggling a lot before this and I accepted the drug because I thought maybe it would help me. And it some ways it helped me but it also destroyed my life completely. There’s just no win and I feel helpless and have a lot of self hatred towards myself for letting this happen.

I think many of us are mad at ourselves for getting into this situation.

I’m just fucking confused. Like it feels like all hope is lost. Most people who recover get 1-2 injections…
I hardly ever hear about people with 4 or more recovering.

Stop acting ignorant just read the invega documentary. There's loads of people who recover that have taken more than 2 shots.
 
Fuck these people who did this to us bro. None of them even consider the long term impacts. How they are destroying lives.

I used to love solving puzzles and using my brain. Now I just feel fucking stupid. Fuck.
