I don't think people that claim to be recovered, actually remember their former self.
You tend to forget how you was after two years, don't you think?

I don’t think ppl who claim to be recovered are recovered either, especially if they’re still on an antipsychotic. I think it’s bullshit. Especially if they don’t workout or do any type of activity!

how can you know that about other people? Just cause you think you might have permanent damage doesn’t mean it’s the same for everyone.

I highly doubt one can fully recover from invega/Xeplion, very unlikely, we can tell by the damage it caused our brain.
The injections also caused me some memory problems.
It's like you're not the same after a stroke, the brain, as marvelous as it is, has limitations when it comes to healing.
I slowly start to realize that I'll have to accept my new deformed self.
At least I can get high on weed, different high than before, a bit stressful too, but still a high.
If I wont recover lets say within 2 years from now, people will find reasons to explain why I haven't recovered.
If you go higher than 2 shots, it does greater damage, and there's no turning back from that.

We'll see, i'm almost 7 months off, no major improvements.

I am not the same as i was 4 years ago no. Now i have ptsd from being in the psych ward which i also deal with, have a legit fear of there and have become somewhat more radical in my views that we are living in a capitalist's shithole. But other then that im the same guy that just wants to get high and fuck

You are being defeatist. The brain can recover from anything and mine has minus a possibly shorter attension span. My memory is not great but then again i take klonopin and eat zopiclone for breakfast alot of days so i wouldnt suspect it would be
 
I agree with the fact that you’ll never be the same person after Invega/psychosis, that whole experience changed my perspective on life and now I know what hell on earth feels like I’ll never forget it I feel changed as a person but I know I will recover 100% in the sense that dopamine and serotonin will return to normal, I’ll be forever changed from the experience but not the drug it’s self.

How do you claim to be fully recovered while you're still on these drugs?
I'm not being defeatist. I'm here for the truth, not wishful thinking.
 
paranoid android said:
Because i liked my drugs just as much before i was put on invega. But now im not addicted to any thankfully as i never got readdicted after leaving the psych ward

I feel the same way tbh I like my drugs better now then pre invega cause I’m not an addict anymore myself I’m 6 months off invega and weed, caffeine, alcohol, and LSD all hit like they would pre invega.

Ya you will never be the same person after that shit. Psychosis and cotards syndrome was quite literally hell for me as i thought i wqas dead and in purgatory or hell
 
You won't be the same person because it alters your brain, that's all.
The experience in the psych ward didn't bother me at all.

In my psychosis I never thought I was dead but I thought that I was dying and would be sent to hell, which I mean I didn’t die but I sure as hell went to hell on earth after I took the injections, my first month of being on invega was extra hell cause I was still going through kratom withdrawal and I was on 5 other medications with bad side effects themselves, I also was recovering from severe sleep deprivation.

that’s bullshit with a long period of time of the drug being out of your system your brain will return to homeostasis it just takes time.

It doesn't say that antipsychotics causes irreversible damage to the brain for nothing.
I've been once on Zyprexa for almost a month, stopped taking it, all the belly and bloating gone within 2 - 3 weeks, no damage to my brain whatsoever.
But not with Xeplion, oh no man, that sucker hit very hard.
You took only 2 shots, that's understandable from your point of view, but that's not the case for everybody.
This drug altered our brain, and now your brain found ways to go around the damage, but it doesn't mean the damage will get fixed and your brain all of a sudden will rewire itself to pre invega, that's just not gonna happen. I wish it was that simple.

I would say if you dont have a irreversible movement disorder from it you are probably fine.

Yeah they did I was mad as fuck they would always shine a flashlight in my room when I was trying to get restful sleep that I desperately needed.
 
Yeah I agree with @UnluckyXeplion we were on Invega Sustenna way longer…it compounds I’m still active on Reddit and read horror stories everyday of people saying they can’t speak properly from the injection and so much more… it causes damage. I was on the Abilify injection before Invega Sustenna and I was perfectly fine my face wasn’t swollen, my eyes looked normal and my body wasn’t weird. I could still workout and everything. The moment I got on Invega I could barely walk and I couldn’t find my car after parking it in parking lots and going into stores felt foreign to me. Doing activities felt foreign it was awful. I could barley find words to say sentences. 17 months of that totally takes the swagger right out of someone. I still don’t feel the same. I don’t walk the same, run the same, look the same, nothing. I’m almost 14 months off it.
