Hey are you ok I’m at 6 months and it’s hard because this drug is so heavy
Hello...im definitetly better than last month ,now im off about 7 and half months still have a mild depression and anhendonia but like i said its better than last month ,well i can say my condition is improving i think the breaking point is 7 month ,you need to wait a little bit more and you will suffer less ...how many shots did you got?
 
80 days off Invega Sustenna. Still have a heavy body and can’t move fast, boring at times, feel out of it at times, still having chest pains went to the ER yesterday for that…still stuck around 122/121 weight range and haven’t gotten my period. Keep in mind I’m on Ziprasidone so it could be the effects of that drug and that’s the reason why I’m not feeling better. Still no motivation to workout hard as I’m having chest pains and can’t/won’t see results so what’s the point. Eating pretty healthy a snack and a smoothie a day. Still no major improvements. 😒

Go raw vegan for a few months (including raw eggs) you won't gain any weight you will start losing weight at month 5 month 6
 
Has anyone gotten drug induced parkinsonism from the shots or pills? That’s what’s causing most of my issues right now. It’s pretty bad.

Yeah very badly first 2 months then it seemed to resolve..after .the thirth injection all the muscles started spasm really bad couldn't even stand up straight because the muscles were twitching really fast. More injections would probably F'ed everything long term. This stuff comes straight from soviet deathcamps.

already feel like invega is out of my body but have reduced sensitivity to dopamine probably can't feel euphoria from dopaminergic drugs like i used to.

Trying to trip again but puked / threw up without any issue meaning invega is not binding to dopamine receptors anymore (maybe in low amounts only) anti-psychotics and d2 antagonists are anti-emetics. Took about 8 grams of mushrooms with MAO-inhibitor and within like 1 minute after ingesting i could already feel the psilocybin and DMT binding to serotonin receptors and started to trip and puked

You should try nootropics / anti-parkinsons drugs like fasoracetam and maybe noopept.

Still unable to relax constantly on edge don't know how get unwired only thing that somehow works is benzos but its a temporary fix. This got to do with receptor down / upregulations and heart chakra for sure (unable to relax spiritually) because there are less dopamine receptors excess dopamine gets converted to norepinephrine which stimulates alpha and beta receptors. Get all these weird side effects during day like sudden anxiety. Only when tripping on DMT there is some relaxation going on but its short.

Can't say i got a good trip on DMT should have done something else imho maybe trip another time. Seem to be unable to make energy ascend through meditations because heart chakra is damage or missing idk in general don't feel anything there just occasional bouts of pain and chest tightness. Had bouts of energy rising up but in general it stays in the lowest chakra causing sexual frustration and all these weird things.

Some sexual problems seemed to have resolved for the first time i felt attracted to a woman again or at least i had some interest (randomly completely surprised me). Erection problems are not as bad as they used to be its not anywhere near preinvega levels but i noticed improvements.

Still feel like the soul is damaged or parts are missing...recovery is only partial but some things feel permament unfortunately. Spiritually the reaction on drugs is completely different, mescaline completely different, weed completely different only thing that stayed the same is DMT...its like conciousness or the flow of energy is permanently altered

7.4months off, still actualy feeling like shit compared how I felt before for example 2 years ago when I was not on any AP. Man Im lossing hope. This shit makes you go AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. Anhedonia still severely bites. Chest pains still here.
 
Hi I apologize for my bad english.I suffer from affective schizoid disorder and have had 12 injections of xeplion 150mg and then abilify 400mg to date.I suffer from sexual dysfunction, cognitive impairment, anhedonia, lost sense of taste Is this all due to medication or my underlying disease? Experiences or suggestions?
 
I feel disabled , my mind it’s completely turned off I can’t understand a book, can’t watch tv, can’t feel anything, can’t dream etc.. my life it’s a total nightmare day and night. I think I’ll kill myself for sure

I dont think those are negative symptoms ...i think xeplion cause all off those symptomps ,its all side effects from the drug and dont worry its not permanent.

My mood is most of time good but it doesnt remove anhedonia which is worst shit of all sideeffects.

Hey, why don’t you try fasting as a last resort?
I have had success with it and would recommend starting with a 7 day water fast to shed the unnecessary pounds.

After tripping multiple times on DMT and mushrooms the anhedonia slightly reduced...but yeah anhedonia still bites. having motivation or interest to do stuff but still almost no feeling of reward for anything. Right now my tolerance is high for psychedelics so i used st johnswort and 5htp for a while.

What i noticed is that some things improve, some things completely resolve but then some other symptoms develop. Right now its urinating way too much like every ten mins throughout the day and developing memory problems

I can't recall who it was, but I have read other people having Parkinsons symptoms from the shots, yes. Sorry I'm not much more help than that. It was in the previous thread.
 
When this insomnia shit improves, Im 7.5 months off and suddenly insomnia started hitting me, I NEVER had insomnia like this before invega, this insomnia makes you awake whole night or I sleep 1h-3h. Before 1 month it was not like this. This insomnia might mean dopamine receptors kicking in cuz Im feeling more wakefull and full of energy.

Any solutions? I already take 2mg melatonin.

Have you tried grounding or earthing outside? This has helped me with chakra’s.
 
Anyone suffer through paranoia from withdrawals? Or anxiety that was more intense than normal?
