What did you do in the first few months? Could you go to work, stick to a daily routine, exercise or enjoy anything?

I didnt do much to be honest I was in bed all day sometimes go on my pc to play games but its better now though, Im nearly 3 months off im feeling slighly better that I can go outside socialize have a coffee, but first few months theres not much you can do but to try and do your best to go out, have a shower just take it easy and retire for couple of months,
 
why does it last so long when it’s supposed “technically” to be out of your system in a year tops. I think feeling like crap comes from the stress we put on ourselves sometimes

Cause it stays in your fat cells and just doesnt go away or it takes a very long time to go away idk something like that I think

If I wasn't scrolling I was either staring out the window and the clock or going for walks in the first few months. They were "robotic" type walks - moving my legs to see how far I could go, they weren't enjoyable but they helped pass the measurement of the day.

Sometimes I watched my 600 lb life because I could relate to the trapped living hell the people were in. Never wanted to watch it before or since.

Around month 4 I started to feel some reward from working out, and passing the time got a little easier

ME TOO!!!! that show’s awesome!
 
Im in my 6th half life of clipixol depot x2. How long do you think it will take for my mind to atleast not be suicidal, does it leave lasting effects even after elimination? Because i still feel zombie like, the inability to relax is terrible and my sleep is average and I always wake up and im wide awake, no lazying in bed with warm feelings anymore

If you’re able to get good sleep that’s a good sign, your brain repairs it’s self when you’re asleep I felt zombie like while I was goi my through the withdrawals but my sleep became average instead of oversleeping like when I was on the injections, If what you’re experiencing is withdrawal give it 2-8 weeks and you should feel better then before, how did you end up getting injected with clipixol? Did you consent to it or were you force injected.

My sleep is ok but it doesn't feel rested in the morning. Ita deffinetly withdrawal it reminds me exactly of the paliperidone shot i had. I consented but I was all doped up on drugs when they gave it to me I barely rememeber it the bastards. No way I wouldve said yes following what happened to me on paliperidone. Also I cant nap when does that come back im jist so restless I cant relax but im also tired which males it worse

Were you on any other drugs at the time? Abilify or some anti-depressant? And when did you start working again?

No. My psych prescribed me weebutrin before I ceased invega but the dry mouth and constipation were unbearable. That's when I decided that my psych had no idea what she was doing and swore off all psychiatric drugs

I think this forum wouldn't exist if there weren't a long an confusing recovery period, most people expect to feel better soon after ceasing, but I see most recovery reports following the 9 & 13 month pattern.

I know this is for invega but I really don't know where else to put this

I actually want to stay on oral haloperidol, just not the current dose because it's just too much

Hoping to go from 10mg daily to 6-7mg daily

5-6 days ago I reduced the dose to 8mg and planned to stay there for a couple months but today the withdrawal became unbearable.

Has anyone here ever experianced withdrawal from haldol or any other oral antipsychotics taken chronically

I experienced some bad effects. You might could call them withdrawals from tapering off of Lithium Carbonate a couple months ago. I was so stressed out and paranoid
 
The taper to of 10mgs is going horribly, depression, suicidal thoughts, trouble reading, low motivation, crying all the time, feeling sick just horrible. I don’t know what to do?

They did that to me in the psych ward too, they doped me up on a bunch of sedatives before I took the injections I can’t even remember the names of all of them that’s how fucked up I was, and it wasn’t even a good fucked up feeling.

I think once your body gets used to only needing 5mgs of latuda it’s gonna be much easier, 5mg of latuda is equivalent to less then 1mg of paliparadone I think, 10mg is a very low dose to begin with so you’re definitely experiencing withdrawal and your brain is re adjusting, anti psychotic withdrawal WHILE TAPERING felt worse then cold turkey opiate withdrawal for me it was hell for me and I bet it’s worse for you since you’ve taken way more APS then me but you got the strength to push through this I know it you survived 17 shots of invega you got this just try your hardest to stick to your good habits like working out if you can’t do as much at the gym rn try to atleast take walks still.
