Did anyone get worse when they came off before they got better? It’s been two months since my last shot and I feel like I’m getting worse.

normal because ap stacks in brain, it does calcification and its is easier to get created then removed. It can take a weeks for some calcification to get removed but then comes new one because inviga is still realising from muscle.
You should start getting better withing this month probably. You also might be hitting withdrawals.

You had many shots, most people who had less shots start seeing recovery going on slowly at 2 months off.
If you keep active you will help metabolism to clear up invega from muscles.

At 1 year off invega should be out of muscles and your brain can start recovering faster.

Well, I don't 🤷 thank God for that; I guess my body just adapted to the invega and since then it has gotten a lot better... 0% anhedonia right now.

Plus not everyone has the same medication side-effects on these drugs, maybe I just got lucky :) thank God for that, again.

By the way those are not side effects, haldol and invega are designed to cause anhedonia and thats primarely what they do.

questa ragazza ha ragione Ho provato a sentire un membro della famiglia ed è una persona orribile. Nina non inventa niente. ha una famiglia disfunzionale. Credo che vada meglio. Uno mi ha anche detto che ci sono voluti 3 anni. Ma era trevica. Alcuni dicono che non si riprendono. alcuni lo sono ma non sono più come prima.. devi capire se sono malati di droga o se hanno altri problemi. Posso confermare che lo è. il veleno. 1 anno è passato. qualcuno ha periodi in cui sta un po' meglio alternati a giorni in cui sta peggio? Sono come un ottovolante. su e giù. a volte mi sento abbastanza bene altro cono oggi non esco nemmeno di casa
 
me from fatigue and dopamine. welbutrin but can't recommend. sexuality zinc magnesium and sunlight can be used. the tongkat plant. high prolactin: dostinex. sleeping phrtoo sleeping pills ... many. if I am well I go to the sea. but the water is now piss here in Italy. hot ... I don't feel the effect of caffeine. natural you can take B vitamins for fatigue but it will not work miracles. they say 1 year but I have not improved much ... one asked if after 2 months I am worse off. first month i was zombie after came depression anhedonia and 3000 effects. still there are, lighter. I'm a little better but not well. I use low-dose seroquel for sleep. I know it makes recovery worse. but I'm also messed up with sleep and I don't even hear sleeping pills

I don't get it... I mean, maybe, I have a little anhedonia I guess? I mean I can't read books anymore, (nor excersize), for some god-awful reason I believe is related to my mood now, because of these medications ofcourse. Not like a normal mood swing or imbalance or anything like that. Sadly, this is what things have come up to, but I don't have anhedonia in the classical sense of the word. I've felt it before and it is the worst, and so I know what you're talking about when you say that word... :) Cheers
 
hi im almost 5 mouths off invega and i start feel better i loose 40 lbs with hard diet(i gain 60 with invega 1 year on injections). i hope i will recover at mouth 6 to 8.im now on fluanxol injections.

I write here because I am very lonely and have all family against me and no friends. It is another day without sleeping I might die from a hear attack or a seizure. I look everywhere if I can find a doctor that talks about invenga and not sleeping at all but since 7 months I have been checking with no success. One who answer me wrote me after 4 months saying that he guessed I was sleeping better then. I might be a very rare case. I don't evolve at all. Nobody can help me. It is so unfair. Why don't I sleep? I think it is the depletion of dopamine. When does this end? I was sleeping so well before. Here people had the help of their family and/or can sleep. Some can even do things or even work. Why not me? I have no support and days are long and there is nothing I can do because of anhedonia

I think that those who have schizophrenia have better outcomes. I just had one episode of psychosis. They should have never gave it to me. And I should have stopped asap

Yeah last time i got put on meds i was on an injection for a whole year. When i had my first psychosis though i didnt think i would get psychosis again but yet i did. I think the doctors assume youll have psychosis for life which is why they medicate you for so long. Even if you recover from meds you face the risk of getting psychosis again and being put on antipsychotics again. Thats been my life. Constantly on and off antipsychotics. Constantly getting forced on them by my family. Its been shitty. You think suffering from these meds once would be enough. But im now on my 4th round with these kind of meds.

Antipsychotic made me so ugly….I dunno if it’s the weight gain in the face or what they did to my eyes and my gender expression but I have to say life like this fucking sucks

It's not just you. Lots of people notice their face gets ugly on the shot. It's hard to explain but it's like it makes your face mildly deformed
 
Here's some more info on L-tyrosine, I don't see it discussed much so maybe people aren't aware of its benefits.

If you buy it make sure to get N Acetyl L tyrosine. It has higher bioavailability than just l tyrosine

N-Acetyl L-Tyrosine works in synergy with stimulants like methylphenidate (i.e. Ritalin).[ii] Drugs like Ritalin work by blocking the reuptake of the neurotransmitters dopamine, and norepinephrine. And if there’s not enough dopamine available to do the job, Ritalin doesn’t work very well. NALT potentiates increases in extracellular dopamine.

NALT also stimulates the production of thyroid hormones T3 (triiodothyronine) and T4 (thyroxine) which are crucial in maintaining both overall physical and cognitive health.

NALT can boost libido, memory, focus, concentration, mood, offers anti-depressant effects, and improves executive function in those with ADHD.

N-Acetyl L-Tyrosine (NALT) is L-Tyrosine with an Acetyl-group added to it. I find it works as well as plain old L-Tyrosine when dealing with ADHD

it's the blood that brings it to the brain isn't it? he
there is no invega in the blood too? this shit is on neurotransmitters and not elsewhere?

It breaks through the blood brain barrier. You urinate invega out as well. I'm not an expert in all the places it is found, but it certainly is detectable in the body in more than one place.
