Coming off Invega/Xeplion (paliperidone) injections v 12

OLDTIDEN said:
i agree with you

my plan on recovery is tapering off abilify with the lowest dose of vraylar until my clinique agrees with me that vraylar no longer is needed in the near future

Do they test your blood or something? You can just tell them you’re taking it without actually doing so

Its already 2,3 year's for your recovery if you recover at all, no need to taper.
 
I wonder where everyone went, i mean, those who were active like 1 year ago.. I came back just to say that I still din’t recovered after 2 years (25.5 months), i wonder if it’s the same for those who were here 1 year ago..
 
Today I'm going for a massage for the first time. I hope my stiffness will decrease a little. I'm so tired of enduring this. And I'm still in shock that they actually gave me Trinza. Until the last moment I was sure it was Sustenna. Now it's clear why the nurse wanted to take me to the intensive care unit while talking to the doctor — they realized they had made a mistake

I wonder about this too. Maybe some people got significantly better and just went back to their daily lives, while others simply lost hope and got tired of searching for support. I hope the first option is the most likely one. I want to believe in the best...
 
Parents kicked me out Home because i posted on Facebook all the abuse physical and mental that been from them and siblings and how in reality paranoid schizophrenia diagnosis is false and its just cptsd because i had a moment in life when i cut contact with all people and became isolated and others heard me being forced hospitalized and some of them thought i went insane so for saying all that happened to me on Facebook they lied on the Police that i abuse them and was forced to be homeless without money but friend Adrian took me in and now im working in netherlands lol, if not for him they could push me to horror

Today I felt rage again . Not 100% the same level as I usually do but enough to know I’m not a blank zombie . I played a video game for longer than 10 minutes . I also got a buzz from a 5% nicotine vape when I took 4-5 hits when usually it would take 2 hits . Before I couldn’t feel anything off a vape . This is progress . According to the math the earliest the drug should be out of my system is September 22 and the latest December 25. The middle should be November 8 . I think by November I should be good and all I have left is the dopamine from weed to be back to normal and for nicotine to take fewer hits to get a buzz . Haven’t drank alcohol in over a year because my mood stabilizer affects liver but I’m getting off them in a couple weeks . So close to recovery

Your less then 8 months? I still feel around 0 dopamine 13 months after, on Facebook most people take around 2-3 years to heal from 1 injection, i don't understand all the miracle fast recovery stories on this fourm

Most people recover quicker then that. It took me about a full year to get back 100% but i think if i had been on something better then latuda at the time i would have recovered much quicker. I started feeling better at about the 3 month mark off the injections

I'm not sure we have the same definition of recovery, i feel some people here considered recovered when they're not anhedonic bedridden anymore, but a lot of people who says they recover still have probably lasting damage reduced front lobe, unable to work a professional stressful job.
Describe exactly what did you do a year after invega/injection, what kind of jobs did you do, how did your day look like, hobbies etc.

I didnt work back then and dont know but that is because i am on disability for trigeminal neuralgia mostly however but also because of that one psychotic episode that lasted way to long because they wouldnt put me on meds in the psych ward. A year off the injections and the last thing to come back was my attension span. But again its kind of hard to tell exactly how much of it was from the invega and abilify injections and how much of it was cause of the akathisia from the latuda. Latuda probably sucked more then invega imo

Zyprexa is the best antipsychotic imo. I can even trip balls on shrooms if i skip a day or 2

See if you didn't handle the stress of job it's not sure if you heald completely by 1 year, and if we're talking about professional jobs like engineering programming anything logic based g force brain power i believe the 2-4 years recovery time is more accurate. I'm going to get brain scan in 3-4 months, i think in 4 months of invega 2 years of invega you can already see a declined of brain in the front lobe.

Check this picture, this person brain front lobe shrank after many years of antipsychotic, it's unlikely he's brain going to heal 100 precent of this damage.

Dude i live in the unemployment capital of Canada aint no jobs here a anyway lol. Everyone is ether unemployed here or working really shitty jobs like fishing so they can get their unemployment insurance for the year.

I am doing fantastic though even though i found out my testosterone levels where quite low and i put the blame at invega and abilify. Since going on TRT and increasing the dose from the wack ddose my doc put me on i have gained quite abit of muscle. I always had trouble gaining muscle before and not i guess i know why.

dont think opiates did it as my sex drive was always fine on opiates. Also they seem to actually increase my sex drive. Some of the best sex i ever had was on morphine and dillies actually

Sorry for what you are going trough.. Because of the severe cognitive deficit these injections gave to me, i don’t remember if you took risperdal injections (dosage?) or pills (dosage?) and for how much time and how much time have already passed since you quit that shit?
