There are members on this forum who were taking them, and it seems like it prolonged their recovery.Why would it prolong recovery?
SSRI antidepressants work by lowering "highs and lows" in mood, placing you in a constant state.
SSRI-s decrease amount of receptors (while also causing upregulation, that lower amount of receptors while also up-regulating which will likely make you suffer a bit more but likely (just a theory) can be helpful at beginning of recovery to prevent further damage from invega during first 3 months, since there will be less receptors invega can stick to.
Possible reasons why these members who used SSRIs recovered slower:
- SSRIs can slow down your metabolism.
- their brain metabolism got more confused, and it took more time to reverse the damage
- these (side)-effects that were left could be SSRIs causing them
- could be just a coincidence
Your mood system is just one of areas that got blocked by invega by 90%+.
