so my brain is never going to recover specifically my nervous system?! what a fucking crime this is! its like I got put in jail for life!!
It takes a year to get better stop panicking
i was angry as hell when i got shot up
 
This may be a lame question, but its been on my mind.

Does anybody believe many people from the previous threads who disappeared, actually ended it?

Like, why wouldn’t somebody who was scared shitless about this drug come back and give updates? Because there are no good news to give?

I know for sure that after feeling like complete shit on this drug, I will come back and post positive news when I (hopefully) recover.

I really don’t know what to think. Maybe they just got over this forum. Maybe they never recovered.

I think it’s kind of selfish not to come back with encouragement after posting tons of negative posts during recovery.

Big shoutout to paranoid android and the others for staying in touch. Thank you, it means alot.
 
I believe that some individuals who recovered may not want to associate themselves with this forum due to negative memories associated with it, and I would recommend same things too for some members to not spend so much time here every day since reading about others' experiences may not be beneficial for you.

I've been wondering the same myself, we know or at least assume there's unfortunately one person that most likely did "end it" not too long ago. I usually don't go around publically admitting it but I too attempted it and thought about it 24/7 for several months after getting the injection. I said at one point I recovered about 80% or so but rethinking it throughly I'd say it's actually more of a 70% currently. I don't feel suicidal anymore since I've recovered sufficiently in several aspects to live a decent quality of life once again but I am still in a constant state of depression and sadness not knowing if I'll ever make a full recovery. Regardless I personally intend to stick around for a few years after whether I fully recover or not to encourage others to be positive and not give up. But anyways to answer the main question I think it may be a combination of people recovering and moving on, others that just stop giving updates for some other reason, and those unfortunate few that do actually end it.
 
This drug is so creepy

Ironically, a few days before he disappeared, merek told me about his previous suicide attempts, but that he was over it and feeling better. I asked him what he thought of a previous user hopton09 who was also suicidal, and merek told me he believed that hopton ended it. After this conversation, merek himself went awall. I pray that he is alright.

Personally, I don’t think this drug is anything to commit suicide over, but if the side effects are permanent I can understand why somebody would want to end it.

If this is my new baseline, I would survive. But life would suck.
 
Yeah when I took Abilify I had a full flat effect and lost my personality and after some time I eventually got my personality back

Where you in the psych ward? I know people who have been in there unmedicated and reported the same thing and i got this to. I think some of the effects people are suffering are actually caused by being in the psych ward not drugs per se. That place is fucking dehumanizing

I think some schizophrenics have trouble getting over their past traumas. Maybe it’s something you should go to therapy about. You talk about it a lot. Your posts haven’t really changed for a year now regarding your feelings on the psych ward. I think therapy would help you move forward and move past the trauma you faced in the psych ward.

Yeah I was in the psych ward that’s where I was put on Abilify originally but I didn’t get the flat effect til later like a few months later so that’s when I stopped

I agree that therapy can help a lot with this but also for everyone in general that ever had trauma. Although I’m not schizophrenic, I have had trauma surrounding that time in the psych ward and the time after it. I’m doing therapy although it helps it is not fully effective of allowing me to move on from it which is why Im actually going to be also trying EMDR therapy soon in addition so I’ll let you all know if it helps.

Im not schizophrenic i just had a temporary psychotic episode. Unfortunatly the wait list to see a therapist here is fucking years
 
That’s good advice for me too. I have so much trauma surrounding that time and the time after it. It also is upsetting to think that the doctors you’re supposed to trust didn’t really have your best interest at heart. Im actually going to be trying EMDR therapy soon so I’ll let you all know if it helps.

I will never trust another medical professional ever again after my experience with the psych ward. Fuck them right off seriously.
