I dont think we should stop this conversation. I decided to go off med and during withdrawal i would love to have someone to talk to.
 
I feel anxious my headache is killing me. Wish i could share more positive stuff. What i really dont like is that it is hard for me to meet ppl because of my anxiety. I really hope my Condition is better without meds. I am scared doing withdrawal i know i have to to find out how i feel better. But i did a cold tirkey withdrawal on effexor i had to be hospitalized and i was psychotic because of the withdrawal. I used to be a very outgoing Person now my mom is like my caregiver and accompanies me. I drive to work alone though. I miss the old me i hope without meds i am returning Back to normal cause without meds i felt horrible 8 years ago it was because of invega then they had to put me bsck in meds cause of the anxiety. I read a story about an american Lady that got a haldol shot and After that meds for years when she was young. She never recovered and the meds gave her several disabilities. I know i repeat myself and i am sorry to be negative but i think i wont get better some effects will stay forever in my System i guess
 
I took an adderall and didn't feel anything. I hate my life
I’d highly suggest not using amphetamines during your recovery theyre neurotoxic and can cause permanent damage too dopamine it’s self invega or not if you wana increase your chances of recovery don’t use amphetamines since you can’t feel them what’s the point anyway.
 
Im around 2 full months off since last injection cognition has improve substantially, Im able to run a lot further and have more stamina, I can flip 250lb tire 20 times, the only problem might be brain fog, anidonia and my brains all fucked up witch is my main concern as my reseptors arnt functioning as before... like for example when I would watch porn Im not getting that kick like before. its unbelievably frustrating. and Im hoping in 10 months from now I could watch porn and actually enjoy it and feel the dopamine rushing through my brain like before and then if that would fully recover I would become a disciple and never sin again. I need to get that kick that I once had.

Is your psychiatrist going too give you the choice of going off seroquel too once your zoplicone taper is done?

If you’re doing that well 2 months off you should most definitely recover 100%.
 
as a former porn addict Im sure your in the same position i want that fuckin kick
That’s not the case for me anymore tbh, I’m trying to quit and rewire my brain to be attracted to traditional inter course with the average women again and get rid of those unrealistic expectations that porn addiction can give.

I dont know but i think so yes. I have the Feeling she listens to me. She is very understanding i dont think she ll forbid me to get off but she wants me on meds definately

That’s great too hear! If you can get off all the meds you may be able too recover one day. As far as I know seroquel and zoplicone can’t cause permanent damage even in high doses and I’m pretty sure you’ve recovered from the 2 loading doses of invega 7 years ago, it might take 1-2 years to recover from long term use of seroquel but It’s definitely possible seroquel is one of the least neurotoxic anti psychotics there is.
