Mental Health Coming off Invega (Paliperidone, Xeplion) injections v. 7.0

[Baddream]

Heres a recovery from a previous thread:

«As a survivor of Invega Sustenna poison for one year or even more, I can tell you it does get better, guys... No anhedonia for me anymore, nor any restlessness, akathesia, etc... Like I was before...

Except for the fact that I am taking Haldol injections for some reason, which has impaired my ability to excersize and function, as well as in reading... But that is something to discuss on another day. Hang in there, guys... It does get better.»

Do you still have anhedonia this far into your recovery?

I do but it is not near as bad. I can go to the gym and shower every day. I still don’t have the motivation to do some things so it is not fully back. I’m Probably at 65-70% healed overall.

These psychiatrists are making people mentally ill with this medication

I agree. Like you said, I would rather do 12 months in prison than have to take invega again.

FUCKING HELL MAN I CAN’T GO ON WITH THIS

It’s almost 10:30 pm where I am and am going to sleep soon. I wish everybody a good and productive week. Try to set small targets or goals and strive to make them happen. The invega storm will drag you down with a force, we have to fight back in order to recover. Try to plan ahead activities and stick to them. If you can’t run, walk, if you can’t walk crawl. Just make sure you get ahead, even in small steps. Good luck to everybody and godspeed.

Invega is the hardest thing I have been through and I’m still going through it. You are not alone.

How many shots you got?

 

[NoMoreInvegaPls]

This is insanity. Stay strong guys. I love you all. Feels like getting beaten over the head with a stick for 12 months plus LMAO. I feel for anyone else who is going through this.

Not that I recommend it, but dxm once a month or so has been helping me. I just need that physical sensation of relief and that serotonin boost every once in a while. It works for me. Js. Everyone is different tho.

I also thank God that I can feel comfortable saying this kind of stuff here - and that God (aka love - see 1 John 4:8) has seen me through.

I'm still having a hard time processing that whole merek situation. May he rest in peace.

Keep holding on guys. Even thru the shit invega puts u thru seek true love and u will find it.

 

[Invegaishell]

How many shots you got?

5 shots. 4 156mg and 1 234mg. Wbu?

I can’t believe how precious life is and how big of a mistake I’ve made. Personally, I don’t believe in an afterlife. So for this to be my one chance at life and they gave me invega sustenna, it leaves a sour taste in my mouth.

So far for me everyday is the same.. No motivation for anything. Keep searcing for hope from the rest of the crew..

I went to the neuropsyhiatrics. He convised me that there is no option that it can couse permanent damage. Also i went to bioenergetics and after his treatment i got my period. I will try with him hoping for the best

What type of treatment was it from bioenergetics?

 

[Invegaishell]

I understand you have said in previous posts about like having difficulty with social interaction in conversations and everything but what if you did something like bumble bff and tried meeting people that way so you can sort of start fresh and practice communicating in the process. I suggest it because I myself have used the app and it’s helpful

Thank you for your advice, but it’s not really like that. The conversation part isn’t something to practice. If I have nothing in my brain, I’ll have nothing to say in a conversation. So it’ll just be them talking, and I’ll be sitting there unable to make eye contact.

How do you not feel like god has cursed you. I feel like that

It’s really hard to feel like my life is ruined. I see so many posts on other versions of this thread about people wanting to commit suicide and I can’t but can’t help but feel the same. Feels like I’ve been damned. I just continually pray god has mercy on me .

Hey if you want to DM me I’m happy to be there to listen. Things do get better but please don’t give up we’re all rooting for you.

I know exactly what you mean it’s completely destroyed my social life and my brain. I literally am not able to hold a conversation Invega definitely does that. You’re not alone in that department bro. How do you explain it to family and friends? My family doesn’t believe this medication can effect someone to this degree smh it’s been rough.

 

[NoMoreInvegaPls]

How do you not feel like god has cursed you. I feel like that

There have been months where I've been miserable. It's really only where I am now that I feel truly blessed most if not all of the time, a lot of the time I did feel cursed.
I just keep seeking God and he has rewarded me earnestly. I'm not afraid to self medicate and the dxm helps when I just can't take the invega withdrawal. I'm high on life, even when invega gets me down.

Invega is a curse, man. If anything I feel I HAVE been cursed, but by the system that has caused this injustice. I think it comes from greed, a lack of compassion, and a whole lot of other issues. But God has been good to me through the good and the bad. That's how I feel. Love is the binding force that keeps me going thru all this.

How long have you been off invega?

Tbh that is one of the hardest parts for me. My family and friends don’t understand what invega is like even when I try to explain it to them. My parents think my symptoms are a part of psychosis. In my opinion, no one will be able to understand this medication unless they’ve been on it. I didn’t think a medication could do this kind of damage until I took it myself. You can’t blame your family and friends for thinking this way. They do have to know something is different about you though. My parents at least notice that. I haven’t talked to my friends in person for a year bro. The social part is the worst part in my opinion.
