Coming off Invega/Xeplion (paliperidone) injections v 12

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?
Man they gave me 6 mg of risperdal and 400 mg Seroquel and I used for four months.It's beden literally 1.5 Year's and I am vegetable.millions of symptoms I have right now.6 mg risperdal means blocking 90 percent of dopamine ın the brain. I am desperate man

Hey man have you asked about changing your meds? It could be that the respiridal is continuing your symptoms, maybe if you switch to something less strong you’ll see inprovements

So you are 1.5 years off the pills form (6mg) and still have the effects.. I’am 2 years and 1.5 month off the injections at Max dosage (that equal 6mg or even more of daily pills)..

Damn.. i would share hope but i’am the first one without hope, only time can tell us if the damage is permanent or not, but crossing the 2 years mark and not recovering it’s a strong psychological hit..

Until 2019 i was completely healthy and normal, they thrown SSRI and Seroquel over me just because I had lungs surgery and i had post-surgery difficulties (sleeping and humor), i cold turkeyed seroquel after 1.5 year, it gave me panic attacks and chronic anxiety that they never really went away..

Back in July 2024 i had a strong relapse of panic attacks because they cold turkeyed me off SSRI and i begged for help, they wanted me to go into a psych ward, where they injected me with that shit..

Now it’s been 2+ years of severe and extreme debilitation and agony, but that spiral started 6 years ago and it went very quick of you consider that they completely obliterated and make me very sick and unwell in a span of 5 years (2019 - 2024).

If i did daily coke or heavy drugs i din’t make it to destroy mysel so fast and so deep, this is what psychiatry do to people, they take regular and normal people and severely damage them..

And if someone have “mental illness” they can’t even “cure” that person, all they can do is to suppress his brain and make him a vegetable, but vegetabling someone it’s not a cure, it’s like having teeth issue and pain but keeping doing anhestesia over and over, that’s not a cure..

Fuck them for real and fuck everybody who was around me (especially my family) because they are so uneducated and ignorant about psychiatry and psych drug and they blindly follow whatever a psych quack said over me..

Not even after i was completely obliterated my family realized that maybe the issue was psychiatry and not me, they still belive that this is my “mental illness” that is getting worse over the years and because i don’t take anymore the drug.. Even if i’am now stuck into daily benzo’s due to severe and extreme anxiety and panic attacks..

As i said i was completely healthy and normal until the day i had my first appointment with a psych quack, just because i had post-surgery issues.. Fuck the system ad my family.. They all failed me.

Your story hit me hard. I was also given antipsychotics even though I didn't have the illness they claimed I had. It's like they punish people for being vulnerable and asking for help. I understand your anger at your family too. When no one believes you, it's a special kind of hell. I'm still hoping that time will help, even if it's slow..
P.S. For context and better understanding: I only had anxiety and some symptoms of complex PTSD due to certain unpleasant events in my life. The doctor interpreted this as delusions, and only recently, when I came with evidence, she believed me. Before that, she even doubted that I was from an orphanage and that I was raised by other people. It wasn't easy for me to talk about all the traumatic events that happened to me throughout my life. I think psychiatry really doesn't like vulnerable people. As they say, it heals some and cripples others. I really miss my healthy and happy self

I completely understand you, brother, because I went through this same swamp. I also experienced manic psychosis after being put on SSRIs — it was the darkest, most out-of-control period of my life, a time when I couldn't even recognize myself. One day I was completely normal, healthy, grounded, and then after walking through a doctor's door, I watched everything collapse just as fast as you did. The realization that "this isn't my illness, this is what they did to me" took forever to reach, and that process was truly hell. Even when I said it out loud, most people around me refused to understand — they still said "you're getting worse because you stopped the medication," exactly like your family is telling you. I know that loneliness, that feeling of not being understood, all too well.

But I want to say this: you are not alone. There are people who went through this system and are still standing, still fighting, still refusing to give up on their own truth — I'm one of them, and so are you.

Yeah it seems to me that they look at us in the same way a hunter look at a wounded and vulnerable prey, they don’t hesitate to harm the poor creature, they are very sick..

They use whatever you said to them against you and pathologizes everything you do or says according to their own perception and their fucking DMS Bible shit.

People have to realize that the most dangerous person you can meet in your whole life is someone who drug you with brain altering drugs and calling that “help” or “cure”, because if something went wrong (like our case) they don’t take any responsability and accountability, instead they switch the cards on the table making it like if it’s our “menta illness”.

The sad part is that we only realize that when it’s already too late..

Yeah, we are fighting against the medical and psychiatric system, against our “friends” and our “family” all alone, while having severe brain injury (functional injury [receptors]), meanwhile we have any sort of health, mental, neurological, physical, psychological sympthoms.

Left alone on our own enduring this siege, trying to not collapse or get completely crazy and out of touch..

Labelling us “Warriors” is not enough, i personally don’t know a real person wich i meet in my whole life who could endure what we are, they will get completely crazy or suicide after some days or some weeks..

We deserve to heal..

Hey risperdalconsta i haven't seen you in a long time,it's messed up you are still going through this. You said the doctor said you should should do tms,is that safe and how does that help. Also solian is an antipsychotic.

Hey, yeah I know Solian is an antipsychotic but at low doses it seems to block the pre-receptors instead of the receptors, so basically it increase the dopamine by blocking the recaptation (similar to how SSRI works) more or less..

Idk if TMS is safe, but keep being Like that it’s not an option, so i have to try things because time alone was not enough..

How are you doing?

I'm still the same. Have you find anything else that can help you. I remember you saying dopamine agonists and stimulants give you anxiety

Yeah, wellbutrin stopped me from eating, sleeping and gave me more anxiety.. idk why..

Now i’am waiting for the TMS to be approved, if TMS won’t work I will take Solian, anything but keep staying like that.

I’am sorry you are still the same, how much time ago did you took your last injection?

TMS push the neuroplasticity and if the protocol is customized can also stimulating those areas targeted by the injections (like the frontal lobe, the prefrontal cortex, the dorsolateral cortex, shit like that) from what I aknowledge by doing some research, my actual psych agreed that the TMS is a good idea and he also want me to get a cycle (usually one time per day for 6 week).

But due to insurance conflict and “off label use” we are trying hard to get that one customized, but he told me he want me to do the TMS so i will probably end doing that thing, let’s see..

A lot of time ago i read a user from survivingantidepressants or Reddit forum Who said he completely healed with TMS and another guy said the same thing.
