I sincerely hope that our dopamine receptors return to their basic functioning, when levels of invega start to drop. Functioning day to day with little to no motivation is difficult. Not just motivation, but feelings in general. It will be interesting if by at four months
When levels of paliperadone are significantly lower, will I feel any difference. Basic day to day functionng is difficult, I can’t imagine living like this for another six months. I have hopes that the information online surrounding the half-life nature of invega is correct and if so month four should be time when I start feeling a little better. However judging by these forums it seems to be a lot longer.

Levels have definitely dropped for me and I’m nowhere near back to basic functioning. I think it takes a really long time for most people.

I honestly did not start to feel better until about now. Around 9 months. But I have loads to complain about still. Nowhere near baseline, it’s just less awful in some ways. But in other ways it’s harder because my motivation has plummeted and my interest in activities has also decreased likely due to the severe depression from nothing changing and feeling powerless.

It's an Invega forum to it's implied that's what I took. You probably got some cognitive issues from something..

I do have some cognitive issues since invega, thanks for pointing that out. Seriously lots of people have joined this forum and have not had invega but other depo shots.

The fact you recovered quickly from invega is awesome and I hope you stay around as we need more leaders who have overcome invega here.

Are you getting that rest to check how much paliperadone will be left in your system? This could be helpful for us as well.

I was only given 2 injections and not repeating but constantly suffering daily for 4 months now.

You have gotten over at least a few half lives, now might be the time to experiment. Have coffee , start taking supplements, go for walks. By month 4 levels would have had to go down somewhat and you should be able to feel a little bit. (Am assuming here) worth a shot nonetheless.
 
These drug manufacturers barely know how this shit works. They publish a half life number but in many studies I’ve read this half life is just not consistent and relies on a bunch of factors like which muscle it was injected in, how it was injected, how many injections and how fat the person is.

The half life also increases as time goes on. I’ve seen it studied to be as many as 300 days long. I’ve seen 25 days, 49 days, 80 days, 120 days, 312 days- depending on which study. It’s just not consistent.

Are you going to get your levels checked? This could be insightful for you.
 
I think i’m in for a long recovery after 9 injections of abilify. The half life is only 2.5 days shorter than invega.
 
Imagine if you could stab your shoulder and scrape this shit out of you. I know it’s not possible but I’ve always thought this.
 
I really can’t understeand how a researcher from an university hospital told me about my sympthoms are caused by weed, then he switched the narrative into i have negative psychosis.

He completely ignored the fact i developerd all my sympthoms because of the injections, not because of weed, and i never had these sympthoms until i got injected.

I’am really disappointed by them honestly, i can take a fake narrative from a regular doctor or an asshole psychiatrist but i cannot take that from a university researcher.

These doctors are really messed up for real.
 
(DELETE if not allowed…I don’t want to cause any trouble…)

So, I am struggling with hunger and I am wondering if I should take my WeGovy injection a day early…on the WeGovy site it says it would be okay…

I hate Invega and how it makes me so hungry…I just want to not have cravings…

EDIT: I took my last 0.5 mg WeGovy injection today, I am going up to 1.0 mg next week.

Anyways, I am thinking of making my avi Nurse Ratched from the Netflix series…

Basically the Psych Ward drama that I have experienced (can’t go into detail) makes me want to do it…even though I post on this thread…

(And this is why I would NEVER advise exchanging contact info with someone you met from the Psych Ward…no matter how nice they seem.)
 
And…if there is anymore with that guy or any family members he has manipulated into doing his bidding it will be the police.

And that is ALL I am going to say.
 
I did it, but not in the Nurse uniform…

IDK, having her as my avi makes me feel safer, IDK if that sounds weird.

Maybe I will switch to the Nurse uniform if it makes me feel safer but I also don’t want people on this thread to get the wrong idea…if that makes sense

Well go out and do something. Don't just sit on your ass and eat junk. And if you're on something else you're probably suffering from that.

I know you recovered very quickly but that’s generally not common. Most people take about 10-18 months to recover.

Because they’re lazy don’t want to acknowledge the true cause and the harm of their so called medicines

I was a long distance runner and exceptional athlete before invega. I was walking regularly in my first month of recovery but the motivation to do things gradually declined. I dont sit on my ass but i am also not as active as i used to be. This drug cripples you and if you didnt experience that, and recovered as quickly as you did than your brain didnt respond to the drug like ours.
 
What can we do about this,guys? What can can we do? That research hospital sounded like the only place we can find out what's wrong with us. What can we do to resolve this? Waiting sounds dangerous with the amount of people that don't recover.

Nothing comes to mind but doing what we can do in terms of supplements, exercising and eating healthy. What other choice do we have, we have to be patient..
 
@undiminished689 Healed.
Recovery Story
Hey guys I'm just checking in again

So I've healed completely as stated in earlier forms in the sense of emotions, motivation when I want to be motivated, I feel euphoria from weed, acid, coke, beer, I had 8 shots of hell that stopped at May 17 and I felt fine by Feb 17-March 17. I went from 205-245 in that time and now I'm back down to 210 not from fault of the medicine but rather my lack of willingless to stay consistent. My palpations are still hanging around but nothing deablitating as I just away from massive uppers and just have random flutters now sometimes.

All is well. I was in everyone one your shoes and time will heal all wounds.

I hold 3 jobs 45-60 hour weeks 7 days a week. Once I've come out of hell I realized nothing can stop me at this point and has inspired never to swing for the fences in life now, in every regard, but I love food and beer so I'm not where I wanna be physically wise but I'm still a bouncer at a club.

The psychopaths have taken a lot from you all healing but do not let them take ur hope, for nothing can last forever.

I experience euphoria and drugs on a much more intense scale now and I have come to much a more clear way of thinking especially denouncing left wing politics that plagued me in such regard.

In no ways am I perfect but I want to bring that beckon of light to all of you as I was healing I just it caught up on Netflix serieses and did what I could when I was recovering. Once you recover from this there is nothing u cannot do.

Do not be bitter from this experience, when u feel that sense of love again tell everyone u do love how much u really once u realize what it's like to have that emotion stolen from you.

Don't give up hope, it's all you have.

Heal peacefully
