I looked over his last posts and he does say he was losing his will to live and that he felt pyschotic again so its hard to tell what happened but it doesn't make sense that he can get better then worse again. Maybe he just had a pyschotic episode and killed himself Im not sure

Was he feeling better from invega

It sounds like you should just simply not smoke weed, or drink alcohol, if you get zero pleasure and only negative effects from both. Why bother?? I know you have said about alcohol that you're using it as a measure to gauge your recovery from Invega but dude, there are SO many other ways you can do this without making yourself sick and unnecessarily damaging your liver, kidneys, brain, gastrointestinal tract etc.

I have a habit of going out to events and gatherings which involve alcohol. It takes the edge off even though the high isn’t good. But you are right, I need to find new friends and hobbies, especially during recovery. It’s hard but not impossible. I’ll pick up some reading material and enjoy the sun these coming months. I hope everybody is doing well and I appreciate the support from the users in this forum.

Invega stopped my period too, but it came back slowly around 12 months off. I had 6 injections ending in January 2019. I started to feel better around 9 months off, normal at around 18 months off, and fully recovered around 2 years off.
I had anhedonia, suicidal ideation, akathisisa, weight gain, complete sexual dysfunction and numbness in the genitals, loss of cognitive and conversational function, loss of emotion, loss of spiritual function(fun/music/laughter/prayer), bad skin/hair, loss of creativity, and loss of motor skill. I regained all of this slowly between the 9 month and two year mark. I no longer suffer from any side effects of invega.

I have fully recovered. Crimsonthornx seems close to full recovery also. Everything you're feeling is normal during recovery. At three months you will probably still feel like you're on invega. Around month 9 you should start to feel a little like yourself again. Unfortunately I don't think there's anyone here who has tried to recover from Trinza yet so I'm not sure if that changes the timeline. Know that you aren't alone and keep us updated on your progress

Did you say you felt functional after 12 months?

I private messaged him a few days before and he was doing fine. Let’s not jump to conclusions just yet and hope for the best.

He told invega made him suicidal and anhedonic. (I just checked old messages) During beginning of April he told me he tried 7 days without microdosing(but it takes up to 14 days for shrooms to wear off) and that he was 75% instead of 80-90% which is when he's micro dosing...

There is hope for improvement
 
Memory impairment/fog that invega causes is serious thing because lot of people don't even notice it, they are that much impaired.

I had another good gym session today. Deadlifts for heavy reps and back off sets. I feel good. Exercise is some kind of magic if you can just push through the initial discomfort. I can’t feel caffeine which sucks. But I managed to do a heavy routine. Not far from my pre-invega weights. In the evening I’m going for a fast paced walk!

Tomorrow is cardio. Time to shed some of this invega fat gain.

That's good, hopefully with continued excercise you can eventually feel the effects of caffeine soon enough, although I've recovered a lot I never tested to see if I can feel the effects of certain substances again. Although invega somewhat physically cripples people, mainly by causing a horomone imbalance thus making it even more difficult to gain muscle/burn fat, I'm sure it's still possible to do so, I've managed to loose a bit of the 60+ pounds I gained from invega thankfully so I'm sure you can too.

I genuinely hope to god Merek is still alive and well, like many others have pointed out he was very helpful in contributing to this forum and provided people with a sense of hope. I spoke with him directly some time ago when he was interested in seeing how my appointment with a new psychiatrist went, I'll direct message him again and see if he responds, his last post/time seen online was apparently 10 days ago ( oh god I just noticed how concerning his last posts were, poor guy ). Invega also made me unbelievably suicidal and anhedonic, I didn't intend to live much longer but thankfully I pulled through that living hell of an experience, mentally and physically scarred but still alive and mostly well.

if he got taken to the psychward there is a good chance they won't let him use the internet. they didn't let me use the internet for like the first month i was in the psychward. i thought that was kind of weird. hopefully that's why he hasn't responded though.
