A 2 year recovery with only 2 injections? Unless the doses were really high like 250mg each injection, his long recovery could have what reason?
It's possible, it could also be a normal dosage because 10 months is where he did say the improvement was noticeable and most people recover either by 6-12 months maybe the two years is where he felt like himself after the trauma of Invega. But im just speculating.

He said "his brain may never be the same again" was not encouraging.
 
He said "his brain may never be the same again" was not encouraging.
He's speaking from his situation but he also said on a positive note that he felt stronger from the experience, also he does contradict himself by saying "I am back to my original mental sharpness (or close to it) and I can feel emotions. As a somewhat positive side effect, I don't get anxious easily"
 
Its also possible that he said his brain is never gonna be the same since he's a changed person after two years so of course it will not be the same, @anonymoususer777 don't worry too much about it, you're focusing too much on one line.
 
Unfortunatley that guy that healed from abilify only had anxiety. I have so many effects from abilify myself. So I probably won't heal as fast as him but it's still encouraging.
 
Fortunately for him though lol but I get you bro, glad it encouraged you we have to hold on to whatever positivity there is or we'll be sinking in a hole of our own dread.
 
I used to run every day… when does having enough motivation/energy for exercise come back?

Im taking zyprexa and like you 10mg a night, don’t notice any side effects?

Im just over 2 months in from Invega but im afraid I wont recover because im on zyprexa.

I cant stop taking it because I wont sleep as Invega caused me insomnia. I feel lost at the moment.

The thing is I don’t know if I’m getting side effects, as I’ve had six shots Invega and I only ceased them two months ago. I won’t know until Invega is out of my system if zyprexa is contributing to my total feeling. I’m unable to discontinue zyprexa and hope that it doesn’t stop me from recovering. I guess I won’t know anything until around six more months or so if it’s doing me any harm.

I sincerely hope that all the negative side effects I have right now, are from invega and not zyprexa/olanzapine.
 
Are you referring to me?

Only if you don’t read previous posts or any of the message board history. Referencing your posts quickly you’ve indicated you read the posts and even responded to people about what they’re posting about. So in this instance, no.

The only side effects zyprexa usually causes is drowsiness right after you take it. Doesent make me drowsy at all though
 
I’m reading old versions of this thread and seeing many reports of caffeine/nicotine/stimulants not working possibly permanently, like @Dr PHD in v4: https://www.bluelight.org/community/members/dr-phd.541030/

The reason I’m so focused on this part of recovery is I need my ADHD medication to work so that I can function at work
I sent you a DM about this but also wanted to reply publicly so people who share similar concerns can see. Stimulants such as adderall and caffeine still work on on me. The effects were severely blunted for several months, but over time they were able to reach full effect again. The blocking of their effects were not permanent in my case.
