If you only took 2 shots I doubt invega caused you any permanent damage, youre most likely dealing with side effects from seroquel and zoplicone, like what HelpMeInvega said if you don’t have any of those conditions I’d say get off the medication with a slow taper under doctor supervision, luckily zoplicone isn’t like most benzos and the withdrawals can’t cause seizures so that’s good news, long term use of anti anxiety meds can actually make anxiety worse over time and seroquel is well known to cause anxiety I think if you tapered off those meds and your brain returned to homeostasis youd feel much better.

Well if you’re not bi polar, schizophrenic or have schizoaffective I’d get off the seroquel…and maybe there’s a chance you could feel better? But seven years off Invega Sustenna is a long time with no improvements

Your totally right. My psychiatrist says invega cause brain damage thats why i need to take seroquel.
 
I don’t know why they would give someone an antipsychotic for anxiety?! That seems like a huge no no to me and it would just make matters worse. Im not a doctor but I just don’t get it

If you had substance induced psychosis you’re not gonna have another psychotic episode as long as you stay off those drugs you should be fine to taper off your meds no problem.
 
If you've been off invega for 7 years then you're recovered idk what to say, it doesnt stay in your system for that long if you're still having effects which is highly unlikely then its probably from different medication

Ya they did that to my brother, they gave him abilify pills for it and instead of helping his anxiety it made it worse and gave him terrible depression and he got really suicidal and ended up hospitalized for it.
