When I was on Invega I would get scared of driving in a car (sitting in the back seat) going snowboarding and riding a bike. Things that aren’t usually scary to people

Stupid Invega yeah but at least you knew it wasn’t normal for you. My question is, did that eventually go away and you could resume fear free activities that you mentioned?
 
I was on the injection for a few months. Then I took 30mg per day for about five months.

Fast-forward several years. These days I take 20mg. Want to take more but the restlessness is gnarly.

I also take clozapine.

Do you work fulltime? Do you have emotions? Are you able to concentrate.
 
Hey guys just a friendly reminder to take care or yourselves and don’t be afraid of ALL medication because of Invega. I thought the negative symptoms I was feeling was due to Invega after 1.5 years Detoxed. Turned out it was the absence of medication. I was able to keep my manic episodes at bay without proper medication although I didn’t realize how depressed and unfulfilled I was. Long story short, I began Abilify oral (5 mg) again and I finally feel like my normal self after 3 years! Find the right medicine for yourself and stay safe! Remember now matter how much people don’t want to admit. Psychotic episodes is simply the other end of the spectrum when you choose the non-medication path.
 
Hi guys I've been on invega for 10 months now and I've gotten used to it. The restlessness I've gotten used to. The sexual dysfunction I've gotten used to. The chapped lips and acne I've gotten used to. The weight gain I've gotten used to. The blurred thoughts and thoughtless conversations I've gotten used to. The sleepless nights I've gotten used to. I was also on it for eight months before my second psychotic episode. So I've been on it for a total of 18 months. So much time wasted. I began hitting the gym teo weeks ago but noticed my body takes longer to recover from soreness like a week so. I'm going to be on invega for a full year this time so 2 more months. And then I'll be trying to get off again. Last time I was smoking lots of weed and doing lots of edibles so I hope that's why i had a second episode of psychosis and so this time i come off I'll be 100% sober, working out, and taking supplements. Hopefully I dont have another psychotic episode. I just want to get fit and look good so I could maybe one day get the girl of my dreams back. She's my motivation. Anyways I wish you guys the best. I hope we all recover
 
I am off for less than 4 months and I feel pretty bad. I have severe anhedonia and severe insomnia I sleep 1 hour. I want to know in the stories of recovery when people began to sleep again and stopped the anhedonia. I am basically all day lying home and I can't afford it. I have also other secondary effects.

I took 6 injections and stop sleeping after the third. Big mistake to take so many

You do know that injectable atypical anti psychotics dramatically shorten lifespan ? They fed this shit to rats and their lifespan got shortened significantly.
Alot of people will die early deaths of this trash... also invega causes mitochondria to travel to the other side of cells they have no fucking clue how harmfull this is. Since taking this trash got problems with thermogenesis and endurance it does something with ATP metabolism.

Better megadose on CBD oil. Like hopefulldopefull said low dose of aripiprazole 5mg is a much better alternative than invega

I used to take resperidone for a year back 2 years ago, that’s it. I had a pychosis break and was taken to the hospital and given the invega sustenna paliperidone injection of 235 mg and the booster for it. That’s all the medication I have ever took. While I’m on medication it’s the worst experience I ever had, indescribable really.

It makes me terrified that it feels literally for eternity that my life is miserable. I've taken invega pill form and injection (sustenna) and both were huge difference. Invega pill forms are better then invega sustenna (cannot be compared) and recently they invented 6 month injection. I don't know what to do with my life. Whenever I went to school I just hated my life, whenever I watched a show it was just no enjoyment. I'm only hopeless.
