Coming off Invega/Xeplion (paliperidone) injections v 12

Please hang on. I’m 17 months now and seeing improvements. Two of my friends on here died from SN and I’m a mess from it. Honestly give it time and slowly you get it out of your system. Call me anytime +61450095555 wats app Australia but don’t give up my friend. Please don’t. Raw banana and Tony were my friends and now they are dead from this as they didn’t wait any longer. Please keep fighting for yourself. Love and peace and empathy: there is hope everyone I was the same. Alana
Sorry to be a negative voice on this platform guys but things aren’t looking good on my end. I’m around 5.5 months in and I feel horrendous, no improvements and I’m scared. Finding a reason to live is difficult at the moment as I’ve lost everything. I feel a constant pressure and have anxiety constantly. I think of death a lot unfortunately, though of course I want to live but my suffering exceeds my will to live. I don’t even expect a full recovery, just a partial recovery so I can live my life. I just want to be able to relax again and feel at ease. Ever since getting these injections and coming off them, I haven’t been able to relax at all, not even for 5 minutes. I have given myself a timeline- October. If I’m not at least partially recovered by then- unfortunately I’m going to have to end my life, as this pain is too much to deal with.

stay strong
Does anyone know why antipsychotics cause persistent sexual dysfunction in some cases?
suggest switching to abilify

it does not increase your prolactine levels

I'm very sorry you're going through this. But there truly is hope that you can get back what was taken from you. It won't be easy but there are methods to regain dopamine and fix your brain chemistry. Please don't kill yourself. I know it might seem like the only option right now, but it's not. You need to live. We need you to live. We need what you can give us. I'm still being forced to take risperidone injections monthly but I'm going to find a way to fight and get off of it soon. And then I'll start healing myself. You can do this too. You're already closer than I am.

I was waking up unrested at month 5... now in month 8, that is one problem that is solved ..i feel more rested after sleep even though i still have sleep disruptions. I think we have to wait some more.

Being able to get really restful sleep was one of he slowest things to come back for me. It took almost a year for that to come back fully. But some of that could have been the shitty latuda i was on

TonyTonyChopper committed suicide?
 
in 10 days i will hit 19 months without recovering… In 4 days i will reach 2 months in the psych ward and there is nothing they are doing to help me a part giving temesta for severe anxiety and mirtazapine to help sleep/depression, but i’am not depressed as a mental illness, i’am just “not happy” because of the sympthoms that these injections left me with. And tinnitus keep me waking up during night and very early in the morning like 5AM.. Almost 19 months..
 
5 months and still dealing with all the problems, i cant stand it anymore since nothing is not going to be better, its just time passes and nothing is gonna change
I am nearly 50 years old.

Magnesium/Cit & Magnesium/Gly are the only sleep remedies that ever worked for me.

Melatonin is a joke. The tolerance build on melatonin is 24hrs. And the reset takes literally months!

Magnesium is what helps your brain make natural melatonin (much, much more effective).

my regiment?

Mag/Cit
->Sun, Mon, Tues

Mag/Gly
->Wed, Thurs, Fri

IMPORTANT: Mag/Gly gives me shortness of breath after just 3 days; Mag/Cit is a laxative so I poop too much. Thus is why I split it up.

Also,

Benedryl
->Sat, Sun

Benedryl tolerance builds quickly, so I recommend just twice per week.

Always take these sleep meds just before you close your eyes. This way it is more effective.

Also, by day 3 you should be getting regular sleep.

PS- I am not a trained physician. Always talk with your doctor

I suffering badly from 1 falsely diagnosed injection and it still going on even after 9 months. How are you managing with monthly ones.

Tell them to give you dopamine agonists and stimulants like I said before. You said they wanted to try their drugs and it's not working.
 
When are you going to leave the psych ward?
You could almost see a physical doctor for the tinnitus and evaluate it, they can check for treatable causes like earwax, hearing loss, or circulatory issues. Sounds like it's standard practice when it persists for over 6 months or occurs with sudden hearing loss however only 20% of people with tinnitus seek treatment. It would pay to have an open mind, normally when tinnitus is caused by a drug it occurs while you are taking the drug and often resolves when you stop taking it. But it pays to have an open mind. maybe it was HAMAS or nicholas maduro or that asteroid you where saying might have caused it. Anyway we got maduro, that asteroid has passed, gaza is in crisis, you've stopped the risperidone so you've addressed all that anyway.
Sleep issues, chronic stress & depression are quality of life issues & funnily enough treating them could help with the tinnitus. And treating them could accelerate the recovery from antipsychotics, although maybe you have recovered and it's HAMAS or that asteroid causing the other symptoms too. Regardless it's good you are trying to treat them and improve your quality of life but a regular doctor would be able to help with that in a 15 minute appointment.

Here's a couple of publications on tinnitus that are worth reading.
