Rosi dear, you said you have a cyst in your pineal gland/part of a brain, I think that is what?s causing your anhedonia. Or your stroke or what they did with your son. I?m sorry for being short tempered with you earlier. There is a cause, you have to find it. I still stick with what I said though that it?s not the xeplion that?s still causing it, although it may have caused your brain shrinkage (and that?s another possible explanation to your anhedonia).

Thanks for the reply @iridiscentblack and @invegauser haha I thought you forgot about me. I don?t understand however so how long would it take me to heal? 17months? I?m sorry I don?t understand what you said. Thanks for your hard work though. You?re very kind and sweet. (No homo).

To the room: I?ve decided to take fluanxol/ depixol for the next seven months, until I can take olanzapine (oral) again. Here?s to hoping I don?t get tardive dyskinesia from it. Please pray for me y?all. I know from experience that I do get (not unbearable) akathisia on it however so i guess I?ll just have to find a way to stop it with propranolol or other beta blockers.

To Yehshuah, welcome aboard. Don?t worry if you just took the two loading doses (390mg total) there is rather a one hundred percent guarantee you?ll heal in less than a year. The sixth month should be a yardstick, if not the eighth or tenth month. Try not to compare yourself with Zack, he is an exceptionally fast healer, probably because he really puts in work to detox of the poison.

Happy healin guys.
 
Hey everyone, @Shadypenguin, @Invegauser, @Zack365, @iridisentblack, and welcome @Yeshuah

@Rosi I heard you were on another AP, you shouldn't be scaring everyone about your lack of recovery when you were put on another AP, had a stroke, and other terrible things happen to you, you are probably recovered and you don't tell us enough about your social life or hobbies to have us believe your doing anything to get better.

I went for a walk today for a hour playing pokemon Go with my gf and I felt exhausted after that, does anyone else feel tired from when they exercise? Is it from the invega coursing through the blood stream?

I've also been having nightmares about myself entering a psychosis again and strangling people, anyone else here having nightmares from the withdrawls?

I've been on the shot for 8 months and I'm 43 days off the shot, feeling mild improvements, yesterday I felt a glimpse of happiness. SOrry I'm not on that much during the weekends, my gf doesn't think obseessing about the poison is good for me so I'm not as active but I'm fighting the good fight
 
@shadypenguin thank you very much for giving me hope!
I wouldn't take any other "medicine" if I were you! Why do you wanna take them? They will give you the same side-effects
When did Zack heal from it? Can you link his post saying he's healed?

I haven't healed yet dude. The best is yet to come!!
 
@Offvega, when I was hitchhiking in the Pyrenees in France. My heart was beating faster and I was tired after a few hours of walking. You're very lucky to have your gf to help you go through these trials. So yeah, it is perfectly normal if you're tired at first especially if you haven't exercised in a while.
 
@Offvega Rosi said that she only took it for some days.. I feel so sorry for her, if only I could help. I feel so helpless, I have always been a person who helped others, now I can't even help myself..
 
@zack365 I forgot that you were meant with "zack". See how fast I forget, I was talking to you only a few hours ago. I used to have such a good memory. I remembered every detail in my head about everything
 
Yeshuah said:
@Tina3000 are you still with us? have you got better???
and I wonder what happened with @beesinthetrap has he got banned?
I would have loved to read his story, because I am also concerned about my
ability to be in contact with my spirit and sould and chakras
Click to expand...

This is what I am worried about. My abilities to communicate with spirit is hampered and all my chakras closed off. I used to have outstanding visions but where never able to verify the validity of them. Now I do after the injections.
 
@zack365 thanks for your kind words, I don't know where I would be without her, it is indeed a troubling time for everyone in my family to see me this way, I can't even work yet. Hows classes going for you?

@Yeshuah Oh I hope Rosi gets better then, she has been suffering from a long time but I think it is besides invega. Do you work or do anything in your spare time? I'm currently just gaming and recovering from the couch and sleeping a lot.
 
I have a theory why we hear voices and hallucinations. It is because we engage our Personal Unconscious and the Collective Unconscious on a Fear Factor Basis. Imagine skating on a clean slate of ice. When we are absolved in fear and skating into the Personal and Collective Unconscious we are inquiring a feedback deposition base of off our Fear Tendencies. This energy then bounces back to engage us in a Freddy Kruger Conversion and if we respond with any tendencies we are merely sending more energy back into the Personal and Collective Unconscious to engage more fear anxiety responses. So don’t fear but simply ignore with no tendencies or engage in a productive Swiss Psychiatrists Carl Jung style analytical deposition conversation and conquer it! Without meds.
 
@Offvega: hey. you got a good woman there it sounds like. yes, i think we feel weaker because of the tight muscles and low blood pressure but idk for sure. (imo stay off the abilify until your fully healed)

@zack365: i got the racing thoughts too, others have as well. mine turned into tweaking behavior but it's calming down a lot now, almost back into a manic state like when my symptom kicks up. thank god, i can control my manic state but that tweaking behavior was embarrassing and i thought was going to be the end of me. btw your description of deep emotions are pretty much spot on, feels weird being guys and talking about our emotions but they feels good don't they?

@dirtyinvega: very nice, full time work is good to get back into. i don't think you should give up on being yourself yet, a lil more time and you might be pleasantly surprised. thanks for dropping in and spreading some hope around.

@LifeAfterInvega: great progress. how you doing after the weekend?

@Johnnypupuke: still hanging in there i see, way to get kicked around and get back up again, brings a tear to my eye (haha). i'm not a fan of psychiatry either, even less so after this trial. i think as lil about them as i can so i don't let them snake their way into my life and bring me down. it's like ruminating on a really bad ex if you catch my drift.

@shadypenguin: no worries, we wouldn't forget about anyone here. i'm more focused on passive reading and flexing what i can in my personal life right now to gauge my healing progress.

let us know how the fluanxol works out. and on that being confused part that's ok, i didn't show my work. general rule of thumb is when it's down to 2mg in your half life is when your pretty much able to do things again or some people consider themselves healed.

there are two ways of going about it and these are respectively to my post on your half lives. 1. the long math. you take a monthly dose and do the math on that month then add it to the next month and do the math for the half life. 2. you add up all the doses then do the math the short way by month by reducing it in half. 25 days and 49 days depends on which one you believe in or choose to use. so basically your going to be healed in 28 months, 17 months, 15 months or 8 months; all depending on how you do the math. weird isn't it?

i don't subscribe to that way of thinking but i don't judge others who do. we've had people heal before and after their half lives are supposed to be up as well as some right on time. my knowledge of healing is from the collective (mostly this site) of anyone who has suffered from the poison. glad to hear you made a decision on what to do and i hope it works out for you. (no homo taken, haha)

@Empty1128: real wilding huh?! integral part of the healing process for sure. i'm feeling like howling at the moon sometimes, been stuck in my head for way too long. XD

@dellad: there use to be one but i was never part of it so idk if it's still around or not, the skype net chat thinggie your asking about that is. you got a long theory there but i follow you on it and it doesn't sound totally out there. pretty close to what i think too. i think most people who hear or see things, their brain isn't interpreting it properly. i think we all hear and see things (supernatural aside) and the filters in our minds don't work quiet right when we see or hear things that get a person labeled as schizo. so if you think about it like this then even normies see and hear these things too. strange aint it.

to the room: if i missed anyone then i'm sorry. just trying to get adjusted lately and i'm rather enjoying seeing you all relate and get along well here. speak up and let me know if i did, you can insult me then i can respond to your previous post, then you can insult me some more.

i wonder if nybryx, Steph78, Hellohihey2 and a few others are still around or if they fully healed and stopped posting as well. maybe Specified (shades) is getting some in italy, for his sake i hope so.
 
overall a good day for me I barely felt the affects of invega I felt clear headed and a little better but nothing like I used to, I'm hoping for more and that the feelings and thoughts of dread disappear and that my thinking and speech return to proper speed, still working on it.

goodnight everyone talk to you tomorrow thanks for the compliments and responses, hang in there.

to the room: are you all working I know a few of you are in classes and stuff like Zack but how are the rest of you managing? as for me I'm living with my gf and she's supporting me all the way, but I get some support money from my dad and I'm still waiting for disability to make a decision.
 
@Aiden21: great question. took me the longest time trying to find out and now someone has put it in a convenient site. aside from paliperidone palmitate there is this:

The inactive ingredients are polysorbate 20 (12 mg/mL), polyethylene glycol 4000 (30 mg/mL), citric acid monohydrate (5 mg/mL), disodium hydrogen phosphate anhydrous, sodium dihydrogen phosphate monohydrate, sodium hydroxide, and water for injection.

https://www.rxlist.com/invega-sustenna-drug.htm#description

and this is from an australian Jansenn website(?):

polysorbate 20, macrogol 4000, citric acid monohydrate, sodium phosphate-dibasic anhydrous, sodium phosphate-monobasic monohydrate, sodium hydroxide, water for injection.

(warning! this site is very detailed and explicit. try sticking to the section 6.1 where this is listed if you head there)

hope this helps

Hey everyone! I hope all of you are making a speedy recovery and returning your life back to normal. When you feel able be sure to return your life back to normal because invega is designed to lower your motivation, deplete your energy and take away your passion for life. Return to work, study, do a hobby, socialise, chase your dreams, these are the activities you must do in order to conquer invega. Those of you in the first stages of healing be patient the zombie phase will pass. If you haven't read my previous posts I'm eight months off invega and the main side effects I'm dealing with now are insomnia and stress from work. When I reflect on how far I've come since the beginning of this journey it blows my mind. Keep healing everyone :)

Not bad, even though I am seriously thinking about changing career path to pursue a job I really want to do. I want to live my dream.
 
Day 125

Today I almost feel pre invega, had a good night of sleep and slowly getting back on track. I ride my bike to go to college and come back, it's a 16 km ride but it became easier as time went by. I still don't have the winner mentality I had pre invega but it's getting better.
 
Is anybody here who has no dreams of the past? No intensive Feelings? Broken Hormone?
 
@invegauser, thanks so much. that was very useful.

has anyone done a dialysis? it's like a cleaning of the blood, blood that the kidney can not process. im wondering if a dialysis is possible on my arm(where i was injected)
 
Dont you think Aiden that the chells could be away? Can you have different emotions and dreams? Is there a Chance to get better after so long time?
