take a look at the sun during a clear sky

you will see the sun empty sometimes

and you will see the sun shine too

when it is empty it does not shine

those that can see this have done their mission here

sun can not be empty, it can only be covered by moon.
 
Hello, everyone I just want to say that everything will be ok. Take your meds, work out, eat right, get out there and be active even if you dont feel good. If you plan on leaving your meds make sure you have a plan and a support system in case you relapse into psychosis. Stress will make you relapse even if everything seems to be going good. Make sure you meditate and practice breathing techniques if you face any kind of stress. Working out and nutrition is key in any kind of situation. Again make sure you can cope with stress very well because life will throw curve balls at you. Be safe and dont be afraid of reaching out for help. I am here if you need any kind of guidance regarding schizophrenia and medications. I'm no doctor but I'm going through this as well and have learned a few useful things along the way. Peace

I'm sorry I forgot to say that I dont recommend leaving your meds but I know the way they make you feel so people are going to try and leave them anyways. I do recommend that if you're going to leave them anyway to at least last a year on them. Over time your body gets accustomed to them and they become more tolerable.

they confuse effects(cause of invega mechanism of actions) with withdrawals.

Seroquel also activates some autoreceptors in certain parts the brain leading to increased serotonin transmission hence the sedating effects of seroquel. Abilify is partial gaba agonist in certain parts of the brain so you get benzo withdrawal like effects when you stop taking it. Abilify has the worst withdrawal effects of any AP

Antipsychotics should only be taken for a short amount of time a few weeks or months max otherwise they become very damaging to the brain

Dude you're not a nuero chemist, you cant exactly know what these chemicals do to the mind and how they work
 
Hi all, i was off meds since may and now i just thrown into the psychward again. Hopefully ill be able to get out with just a few pill taken and no injection. But i also think i may be able to get out having a lawyer.

So yeah i was om Fluanxol from 2021 march to May 2022, i was on a CTO for a year, 40 mg at beginning then 30 mg. Just read some of my earlier post if want more information.

Anyways i uploaded a video of me in psychward. If i take the meds longer and the result is i am...zonked out of my mind ill have video evidence too.

So maybe when ppl recover they can show a b4 and after of them taking antipsychotics to give evidence that those drugs dumb us down and all the other stuff thst those drugs do.


Heres my twitter, with me in psychward.

No it doesn’t at all, you have abilify all wrong. I didn’t get withdrawal at all from abilify. Abilify seems to be hitting you harder than it does any other person. Abilify is a weaker antipsychotic it is a partial antagonist. The only side effect I had on abilify was weight gain and a slowed down effect when trying to workout fast and that was minimal compared to Invega or any other antipsychotic. I think you’re just abusing drugs on abilify and not really trying to workout or do anything on it and it’s hitting you harder than most ppl.

Someone needs to hear this. Your body weight and memory can go back to normal even after using invega for years. Please try to stay on it for at least a year. That's what helped me out

Aripiprazole Increases the PKA Signalling and Expression of the GABAA Receptor in the Nucleus Accumbens of Rats. - J Mol Neurosci.
Others actions on GABA are also possible, one of additional possibilities is because Abilfy stimulates glutamate thus rising GABA levels afterwards.
Glutamate and GABA are working almost like oposites, in similar way as dopamine and prolactine do.

It means this combined with prolactin, abolifu can be good post invega for a short stay

Abilify long term causes a host of bad problems and should be used against invega only. It's so bad I can't think of another use for it.

Like before invega I didn't know meth could heal brain damage. Abilify doesn't heal brain damage, it's a comparison.

Yeah i had problems with abilify too. No weight gain, just dumb mind and low energy. Real hard to work on it and converse and all that.
