I get morning wood but I have sexual dysfunction. Anyone else the same?
I also got the same thing, sometimes I get morning wood, but my dick is still numb.
It takes me a great effort to reach orgasm and cum, and when I do, the semen volume is low and mostly watery.
I hope I'll recover from that as well, it's been 73 days off for me and on no meds.

I'm experiencing the same thing, and I'm off around 73 days also. I want to cum like I used to, but my penis doesn't work that well, and it takes too much effort, so it's not worth it for me.

I also have to deal with feeling very tired and some head pressure from time to time (which is getting milder by the day).

If I had my sexual function back, I would be very happy, since everything else is tolerable, and it seems like sexual function returning would be a good indication of recovery.

I wonder if it'll return in a few months, or if we have to wait a year.

I read someone on the V3 thread that took him about 6 months to fully recover sexual function. Who knows, might be different for us.

What I suffer the most right now is anhedonia and this feeling that it's hard for me to stay idle, I still feel restless. Like laying in bed or sitting in a chair without doing anything is painful and I feel like I must do something all the time.
Do you suffer from this too?

No, I don't suffer from restlessness or akathisia right now, but I had akathisia the first month. It was really bad, to the point where I couldn't sit still. I constantly felt like I had to pace, but it disappeared after 35 days. I'm scared that it might come back because it's the worst feeling, but I haven't felt it in like 1.5 months. Right now, sexual dysfunction, mild head pressure, and feeling very tired are my biggest issues. I used to be a very horny person, and it all disappeared.

I remember your first post here and you said your akathisia went away too. Did it come back for you? I hope not.

I had to be more accurate tbh, it went away almost completely, but I'm left with the feeling that I described above. I'm restless, not so much akathisia for me anymore, if that makes sense.

I used to be extremely horny too, especially when I practiced semen retention, almost every girl I used to see got me aroused. lol.
It's all gone now, hopefully it comes back 100%.
I don't want to just get better, I want myself 100% back to how I was.

Anhedonia drives me nuts, I lost patience for everything I used to love doing. I could sit for 16 hours a day playing video games before the poison, now I can't even 10 min.
I don't get addicted to anything anymore, and if I try to do something I used to love doing, I feel an urge to stop and do something else.

Also, the magical feeling I used to get from just staring at nature out the window is gone.
The best way for me to describe it, life now is like a cooked meal without spices.
Xeplion took the spices of life from me.

I have similar problems like loss of patience and anhedonia. I think that our recovery will be determined by the return of our sexual functions. That's the way I'm thinking of it at this point. It seems like there's a long way to go.

I was the same with girls, just wanted to have sex all day with most girls I saw. Now, I can't do anything and do not get aroused.

Right now, I'm also gaining a bit of weight and I am not even eating that much.

I'd be concerned with the restlessness you are experiencing. You said it felt painful too. I am not experiencing pain, but I experience a lot of boredom.

The restlessness is not painful physically, but the fact of sitting doing nothing drives me crazy.
Before the injections I could sit all day doing nothing and it didn't bother me, I found it to be enjoyable.

Sexual function is a good indication for recovery, yes.
But that's only the physical aspect of it, the mental like anhedonia will probably take longer unfortunately.
I find myself extremely bored with this anhedonia, so for me, I'm hoping it will be resolved first.

I see what you're saying now. I can relate with your situation a lot, we're like on the same boat.
 
You're lucky to just get 2, I got 7.
You'll probably recover sooner than me.
I can't believe the doctor wrote me a prescription to take it monthly after I got discharged. I am just glad I didn't get court ordered. I didn't even go to any doctor ever since getting discharged. One thing scares me is ending up in a psych ward again, because they can inject me with their poisons against my will.

I don't think I'll recover sooner than you. I think what matters is the time off from last shot. So we are on the same boat.

I hope that's true.
 
Has anyone ate pistachios recently? Every time I eat it my brain goes numb. I did some research and it contains melatonin, which is anti-dopamine, so it might be lowering what's already low.

Do certain foods make anyone else feel like shit?

I don't think dopamine is low, it's just that the receptors are blocked, so almost no dopamine binds really.
 
I'm bored as fuck. Nothing entertains me anymore, I have to force myself to do everything. That anhedonia shit is the toughest of all side effects, trust me.

I wouldn't say lucky.
 
yo what makes you say that? what happened? you recovered from your shot?
Yes I did, easily. But it was hard work. I got shot 4 times in early march 2021. I suffered for one year straight: no sleep, no rest, anhedonia, suffering, humiliation, basically anything and everything you can imagine happened to. I'm from Kenya, Africa so you can imagine. Then, after all was said and done, I was ready to kill myself. Then, God came and picked me up. He introduced to a healer, a natural healer. But my body was too exhausted to do anything. Before we did anything, I had to check into a rehab centre. That was December 21st 2021. I stayed there for three months with my fellow patients.It was sort of a hotel/resort/holiday area, I think. While I was there they gave a concotion of pills: mainly seroquel for sleep, vitamin c i think for increasing appetite. It didnt do anything to dispel invega from my system, but at least I could sleep, lie a human being. While I was there we got taught the word of God for three months(comedy comes in threes lol), and I was taught positive thinking. When I left the rehab I met with my healer with had met back in December. He told me one thing which changed my life for ever: as above so below, as within. Basically what you feel inside or what you think is what you create outside of you. I was introduced to the works of Hermes Trismegistus ( https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=The+Kybalion ), ( https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=the+golden+tractate+of+hermes+trismegistus ), ( https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=the+most+holy+trinosophia ). So I set out to change my thoughts from negative thinking to positive thinking, period. ALL day every day. I sought to fight invega tooth and nail. It takes 21 days to form a habit, and 90 more days( 3 months to make it subconcious. I stayed away from all media including phones. It was an ordous, no work for frail hearts. I started noticing changes one and a half months in. My cells began to vibrate from positive thinking; I noticed when I would go to the toilet to piss I pissed white precipitate bubbles in powdery form of invega sustenna. I never missed a single day. I was exhausted, but I was happy. I had HOPE , which pushed me forward. It has been 6 months now. Im completely healed. I sleep effortlessly, Im back to my best, infact even smarter. You can tell by my writing. Infact there's more my people! After all is said and done you discover a new power within you, my people. I'll reveal to it you later. I'm here to tell you that healing is possible; infact the speed of healing is up to you. Once you realize that things happen for you and not to you. Ask yourself: Out of 7 Billion how many people have really with shot with invega? How unlucky are you. Actually it is the opposite; you are one of the luckiest people ever. There is no one who is fatherless or motherless in this universe. Infact everyone who has ever stepped in a psychiatric hospital is a genius in one way or another. I beleieve it will be easy for you to understand the works of Hermes Trismegistus, unlike other people. I can go forever. You are on of the few chosen ones. Feeling and thoughts is everything according Quantum Physics. I have proven this for myself. I love y'all to death my brothers. Soon I shall the kiss of peace f peace to my brothers. As within, So without. Shalom.
