I feel the same right now, its been 6 months and i am concerned, but you are still in the early days of recovery, i think you will feel better in 6 months like most people do.
I have developed some new symptoms in past couple of weeks, I don’t know if that’s normal
 
I thought I was feeling a little better but it was just a placebo. I’m close to finishing myself off.
 
I also have sleep disturbances and waking up at night; they developed around 2 months being off the shot and not before. Lately, I also experience a lot of intrusive thoughts or painful nostalgic recollection as some have put it.
 
What's more, I'm also experiencing some fluctuations in waves and windows of mental clarity. I might feel the brain fog lifting and verbal fluency returning for 3 hours or so and then they will disappear and comes the intrusive thoughts and anhedonia for the next day.

As I understand, windows are good signs of recovery.
 
Further to this. In my darkest moments I tried killing myself on numerous occasions. I hung from a rope in my closet partially suspended, luckily I could never achieve death.

I considered driving my car into a tree, I considered jumping from heights. I considered popping pills.

Look luckily none of this happened.

Thete have been others. But there accounts escape my memory.

Yall helped along the way.
Did you take any supplements? Also what does your height and weight history look like? I am curious if gaining or losing weight has anything to do with recovery since invega is injected into muscle in an oil suspension.

I have the same sleep disturbances. The painful nostalgic memories have eased a bit as of recently.
 
Little close to four months and it seems practically no improvements except my akathisia has eased up. I did report improvements before, but that was just placebo. This by far has been the hardest trial of my life and I don’t know if I can hold on. I hope by at least month 6 I will notice some improvement. I would pray for help, but after this experience I’m not sure if there is any god. I’m experiencing suicidal thoughts as of now, as the thought of living with my situation is painful. I’ve lost everything.
