Coming off Invega/Xeplion (paliperidone) injections v 12

But in actuality it took 2 year's right? You just started feeling better after 1 year.

I doubt a lot of the recovery stories less then 1 year. I'm 10 months and 6 days and I'm just starting to be able to get out of bed and ordering stuff online, this shit had enough poison to kill an elephant.

For those who used to cherish their happy memories before taking Invega, do you feel taking this drug prevents you from reminiscing as much, with the memories being less vivid and not creating happiness when you think about them like before? Does this ever get better?

Yes.it's like it's barely even there

Hi guys. I'm new to this thread and have had 8 invega injections (including therapeutic dose) over 7 months. Can if I'm too late in trying to get off this? I'm neurodivergent and I used to be warm, vibrant, funny, with lots of passions and interests, but this drug has taken that away. I've lost my spark. Will that ever come back, or have I lost a part of who I am for good. How many injections did you guys have and what is your recovery stage?

7 months of injections for me for a total of 8 injections , it took me 8 weeks off injections to start enjoying life again. My interests are slowly coming back. While on invega I only looked forward to sleep . Now I look forward to the day. I can feel the warmth of life coming back each week
 
Did the Invega cause insomnia and a blank mind for anyone? How long did it take off the injections to recover from this. I'm someone who used to have racing thoughts, and many ideas in my head, it feels so bizarre having nothing to think about.

It's interesting you're sleeping too much in bed, cause I have the opposite problem as it's giving me insomnia. At the start it made me sleep a lot but now I only get 3 hours of sleep a day. If I could choose between lack of sleep or extra sleep, I'd choose the latter as it's your body's way of recoverying.
 
That feeling of not having wet dreams anymore is weird and frustrating because you can feel there's tension in your body but it's not able to be released naturally.
 
invega/xeplion is truly the most damaging poison there ever is

it disrupts your sleep and increase your prolactine

if you can switch to abilify then do it

abilify is less harmful
 
It seem on Facebook and reddit most people take 12 months to 18 months to heal from Invega, it's mostly here where people heal so fast in 8-10 months.

Sorry to hear what you going through, it's fucking ridiculous what this psychiatrist made us go though. I wish god will punish them all. For enteral hell full of antipsychotic for them.
I'm only regular Invega 5-6 shots and i think i will not recover, already 10 months and 9 days in this hell. 1.3 years since I've started

Haven’t gotten high due to fears of psychosis, unemployment, and house rules. I’ve been sober for around the past 6 months aside from maybe 2-3 nights of drinking alcohol with a friend. I’m starting to regain all what was lost and I feel a bright uptick for my future. All I need back is all my intellectual capacity, creative capabilities, and to lose 80 pounds somehow. Once I get all those back I’ll consider myself fully recovered, I got my last shot in August(23?). So coming up in 10 days will be 5 months time.

I additionally contracted a concussion hitting my head first onto the ground slipping while during my psychosis. At first I was unsure if I’d be forever mentally incapacitated relative to my previous heights but as time progresses things continue to get better for me so my fears have diminished greatly. I’ve also had 4 or 5 concussions up to this point, and none of them has damaged, removed, or taken away my cognitive capacities or capabilities like this one/ Invega has done.

Can I tell you a truth? AS someone who gets hit in the head for a living, the thing is you cannot realize what damage was done because you will always be experiencing the current you, that current you will not remember what the old you felt. It is well known in my circles, you will never be yourself again and that shouldn't be scary but it should be understood. Your brain can only imagine the state it is currently in, it cannot imagine the state prior, damage happens and now your thinking moves a bit more lower than you previously know, but you do not know that now because this is your new normal.

Hope that makes sense.
