Coming off Invega/Xeplion (paliperidone) injections v 12

Hello, I wondered if anyone had experienced a lack of adrenaline or anxiety and have recovered their anxiety or rush, I feel completely flat and nothing seems to change my mental state at all even watching awful things does nothing for me, has anyone else experienced this and had it changed over time?

Yes, I’ve experienced something similar after Invega — it felt like my nervous system became emotionally “flat,” almost as if adrenaline and emotional intensity were muted. Even things that would normally trigger anxiety, excitement, or shock barely affected me.
Over time, though, I’ve started noticing small changes and brief emotional reactions returning little by little. Recovery doesn’t seem linear for many people, but I don’t think this state is necessarily permanent.
My anxiety is gradually starting to come back now. Sometimes it signals itself through my stomach, sometimes through a racing heartbeat, and sometimes it’s barely noticeable. For me, anxiety only started returning closer to the sixth month
 
My inner monologue is muffled . It’s like I can kind of hear my own voice in my head but there’s a hand over its mouth. How long did it take for that voice to return to normal for those who have recovered?
 
Hey all,

I am not checking the forum anymore but I just wanted to do un update about how I am, since some people write me a DM to ask about it sometimes

It's been almost 5 years and a half since my last shot (got 6) and I am still really struggling so I really think I am one of the cases of people who have permanent brain damage from Paliperidone depot. I don't remember my last post in here and my memory is really damaged, so I don't know if I already wrote that I was accepted for assisted suicide in Switzerland. Even if it's nothing concrete I like to have that as an option if I can't hold on anymore. At least I deserve a peaceful death.

Before I die I would like to prove that I have brain damage but the only close thing to that is that I have abnormal results in a QEEG test. So I suggest other people to have a check at that.

Invega totally destroyed my ability to sleep so I can't be off psych meds. I am stuck at 37.5mg of Clozapine to sleep, which is tragic.

Regardless, it's been like a month now that I suffer quite a bit less. It just happened overnight, as it happens to most people. I believe that nothing helps healing besides time.

I also wanted to write here to share this article which I find very interesting, since psychiatrists always says that Paliperidone in out of the body after 4-5 months : https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12122147/

And also, people, please join the Facebook group: "Invega Sustenna/Xeplion (Paliperidone Palmitate) Should Be Banned".

Hugs!

I'm sorry you didn't recover but at least you are able to find some closure. Even if it's not desirable. I hope you find peace at the afterlife.

Thank you for checking in. I'm interested in hearing about stories about those getting/applying for assisted suicide/MAID in other countries. I'm in a similar situation and was leaning more towards the Netherlands because they give people the option to donate their organs when terminating their life through a program.

I'm sorry it's come to this but I sincerely hope you find peace somehow.

i wish there was an alternative but if you're set on this decision then i can't stop you. i remember your posts from when i was first here in 2024 on my original account but i was forced to delete it during hospitalization. your posts were helpful and thanks for your time here.

Well, at this point assisted suicide is an option that gives me peace but I will wait longer since I am not as tortured.

On invega i put on a good 55 or 60lbs. Lost it all once i got off it though

I have a theory the weight gain is a result of the drug causing slower metabolism. Cant you guys just eat less?

Im planning to call some lawyers today about having penis problems and seeing if i can sue a pharmaceutical company. Wish me luck :)
 
What about me? 9 months and 11 days i think i didn't heal completely, still feel 10 IQ+ points lost.
I think invega did some lasting damage on me, i was ADHD/sluggish cognitive tempo so i had some disability before starting this. I definitely feel more of retarded now. It's hard for me to think or even remember names of people i met. I hope Vyvanse would heal me soon. And nootropics.
I hope by 1 year i heal
