Yeah I understand that. I’m in the same boat. I’ve been bedridden for almost 3 years now. But whatever you do. Don’t kill yourself
I'm bedridden too bro, almost 2 years in my case. Why you bedridden for? I had an accident and I didn't receive the treatment I needed on time. Whst abot you?
 
Oh shit well that’s great man. The drug is leaving your system. You’re already 7 months in. You should be recovered in no time I would think. How many shots did you get? And not shit. I just lay in bed all day and do nothing really unless I have to run errands or go out or something
Oh u can actually u walk.... ure just laying in bed. Thsts different nvm
 
Ohh okay. Sorry I shouldn’t have assumed you were a guy. They also gave me one shot of haldol when I was in the hospital in October of 2020. I’ve been on antipsychotics for almost two years now
And you can run and go out, that’s good me I can’t even read a book or watch tv.. 😰🔫

Well I can’t run like I used to. I don’t like going out but I only do it if I have to. Sometimes you have to go out and run errands ya know

Hi hun, as @Masterp423 kinda hinted to, sometimes you gotta force yourself to get out and do stuff. If you don't have any specific errands to do, can you aim to go outside once a day? Even if it is literally to go and stand in the backyard then go back inside, or walk to the letterbox and back inside. There have been numerous times in my life when that was all I could muster because I was bedridden for various reasons (reasons including severe depression, PTSD, grief, various drug and alcohol withdrawals, influenza). Sometimes just feeling the sunshine on your skin and the grass under your feet can do wonders.
 
I went from 156mg of invega and switched to 75mg of haldol. The doctor said it won't effect my sex life. Is anyone here on haldol?

Does haldol effect your sex life and how long have you been off invega? Any recovery?

It didn’t affect mine personally but I only had 1 shot of haldol. And yeah I got off of Invega back in April of 2020 and I recovered in about 3-4 months. Full recovery around 6 months I would say. Now I’m on Abilify Maintena (400 mg) and have been since June of 2021 and it’s about the same as Invega. It’s affected my sex life greatly. I haven’t had sex in almost three years now and can’t get a buzz off of anything or get drunk. I was on Olanzapine and Loxapine from October 2020 until June of 2021 and then they switched me to Abilify. When I was only on the Loxapine and Olanzapine I could then get a buzz from substances but my dick was still fucked up
 
No I’m 7 months off now I don’t take it anymore but I’m still very bad. What do you do during the day ?
hang in there my friend. I have recovered around 7 months and it was quite suddenly. Don't forget that some people are on forced treatment and have to take these nasty injections for life.
The poison will be eliminate by your body, it is just mathematics. The body is programmed to eliminate evrything in the body witch is not" natural" (homeostasis) but it need times.

Very well said, thank you <3
 
Who else lies in their bed all day like 23 hours of the day only getting up to eat and shower?
Lol the effects of these medications is sad and depressing like yooo when will it clear up ik im so close, but I’m so anxious and I be so impatient to feel optimum.
 
I went for a walk the other day & I've still got severe anhedonia but still listen to music. I feel like a robot listening to music & I can only remember how it used to make me feel or I'll listen to a new song & it's like I know how I would usually feel or react normally but I can't feel it. But I listened to a new song that the normal me would love & I felt the urge to suddenly walk faster because I knew the normal me would find it motivating.

I think I had a reaction to the Cabergoline the other night. I read you're meant to take it at night to lower side effects. I woke up as if I had fainted everything was spinning my ears were ringing loudly & it took me a minute to come to consciousness. It's hard to explain but it was like I was fainting while laying down. I then felt like I was going to lose consciousness again & had to wait for the dizziness to pass. I've had this happen a couple of times way before I started taking Cabergoline & I'm prone to fainting but this was probably the worst it's happened.
I was going to stop taking it I'm so disappointed because it really gave me hope & a sense of control in being able to lower my prolactin & get my period back maybe even get the increased sex drive that alot of people say they get. I didn't take the half a tablet last night but then decided to take it this morning & see how I go if I faint again I'll stop taking it. I'm not sure if it might be interacting with however much invega is left in my system
 
Relearned to read again...still have trouble counting numbers and have trouble writing. Also have emotional problems and lowered inhibitions for example lowered control over emotions, sex, food. Also get bouts of sudden agression and suicidality, depersonalization, dysphoria. Heart and tightness in the chest problems as well .

Still can't get high..also got severe sexual dysfunction and ptsd but because im on forced treatment im not allowed to get a private psychiatrist...fuck this country

Only thing i think about is killing psychiatrists and politicians fuck these scum

Close to month seven and still brain damaged

Be careful with the Cabergoline. It can increase leaky heart valves by 700%

So you only took three shots? Yeah I fucking hate my psychiatrist

Yeah got abused heavily by the system and received no help from family or friends. I also need to pay for my own medication and therapy.

These people need to be gassed in concentrationcamps. For last few weeks a 30 minute walk takes me almost all day to recover. These shots literally caused insanity its like all mental boundaries/self control is gone.

Anti psychotics caused me severe money spending and deviant sexual behaviour.

Received haldol shots against my will in isolation and have problems with the brain ever since

Yep. My family is in on it 100%. I also get no help from family or friends. What did you do for them to put you on antipsychotics? If you did do something of course
