Mental Health Coming Off Invega Sustenna (Paliperidone) v.2

[NotAPsycho]

Does anyone know how long withdrawal insomnia lasts? I'm having horrible withdrawal insomnia and can barely sleep without sleep aids. Will it clear in a couple of weeks? Or will I be like this forever?

You get used to it, sort of. Not really though. It's taken at least an hour for me to fall asleep since I got the shot, and I wake up every couple hours or so. I have to force myself to lay down since I don't ever get tired, yet I still have no energy. 30 mg of melatonin won't even put me out. It's ridiculous. Chances are, those problems will last until the drug evacuates. If not, I'll have to resort to medication. But I want to stay clean until I give my body the time it needs to destroy the poison, so that it's not wasting energy and resources breaking down other pills.

I'm not taking any medications. Just a bit of Melatonin. I want this to END!

Update, week... ??? month 7, 7 full months. Still tired all the time. Still tired beyond belief. Still emotionally flat. Still feel like a zombie. Still very much on this shit. Unreal. These people need to be sued out the ass, these "pharmaceutical" companies and anyone who supports them, doctors, "psychiatrists", etc.

 

[akaz]

Always feel so light headed. Like on this chemical poison, my body's always losing blood, maybe even internally bleeding. My entire body feels light headed. Like seriously, I've nearly died a LOT from this drug. Closest to death I've ever come, and over and over.

Would you tell me at how many months it was when you started noticing your weight loss? and thanks for the reply.

About 9-10 months after my last shot.

On month 7 now and I feel about 90% recovered. Emotions and energy seem to be almost back completely, however it's still hard to tell when I might be fully recovered. Feeling very positive. Getting lots and lots of sunshine and sweating as much as possible is the key.

Week 43 off the poison
Close to recovery, just going to exercise for an hour a day for the next 6 weeks

It's just completely ruined my mind, body and soul, I'm not even exaggerating it's shocking.

This is great to hear guys! Thank you both fo putting in the effort to keep us all updated! As I'm sure you're both aware, there's hardly any true information out there on this topic and hearing it from people who've actually experienced it makes it a whole lot better. It seems I have another 4 or so months of this to go before I start noticing improvements too (I'm 2 months off the poison).

Would it be okay if I ask about music? Did you ever experience joy/good feelings whilst listening to your favorite songs? Did it sound great? Has any of this returned, 'cause right now music, and most sounds, just annoy the shit out of me. It's messed up.

Once again, thanks so much for posting, looking forward to hearing of a full recovery from you both and us all! =]

OFF TOPIC: Has anyone bothered to ask a moderator for Narshe81's email? I'm craving an update from him - now that he's a few years clean. If nobody responds, I'll take this task on myself next week, hopefully it's not against privacy rules, just really think it'd help us all...

Me too mate, me too. I choose to think of it as a 'temporary impairment'; rather than a life-long 'ruined'. I just need to find a way to channel all my hatred toward these scum who have done this to me, and all others, in a way that brings them to justice.... hmm..

 

[iridescentblack]

I figured I might as well say this:

Thirteen and a half months off the poison I'm getting closer to recovery. I'd say I'm about 45% recovered. Not much motivation but my energy's coming back. The medication finally evened out about 3 weeks ago and I suddenly started feeling almost happy. My memory has improved a lot. I'm remembering conversations I had and funny things I came up with rather than just forgetting EVERYTHING. My knees are a lot better now. No more pain when sitting with my legs at 90 degree angles and my left knee stopped popping for the first time in almost 3 years. Hoping to see a large dip soon. A few more months of this and I should be close enough to recovered that I won't even think about it.

I'm 9 1/2 months of the shot. Music is just as great now as it used to be. I couldnt enjoy music for the first few months either. So I wouldn't stress about that too much. You'll find enjoyment in music again soon!

@Tina3000 you can cry... I think you fully healed if its been 1 year for you... It's been 3 months for me off this posin and I can't cry.

 

[Joey2358]

Has anyone fully recovered? It's been 3 months I've been off this shot and I still can't get a natural erection when I think of beautiful women.... I also can't run and distance running is my passion.... How long does it take to fully heal? It scares me that some people say they haven't recovered from it after 2 years.... I only had 2 shots in total. It also scares me that some people never recovered like the guy on YouTube.

 

[Koz26]

@ZombieMode

no problem buddy

@joey

if you go back and read previous posts in this thread, you'll see that a few people felt recovered in under a year. I'm feeling pretty good myself and I'm 9 1/2 months off. Not 100% but I'm still on a mood stabilizer so that might be affecting me more than the Invega. I'm tapering off it now so I'll keep people posted on how I feel once I'm fully off. Should be another two weeks.

 

[Joey2358]

I just saw the post and it makes me happy to see that people have fully recovered from this poison.... I think we all need to get together and sue Janssens for everything they got..... Their needs to be some cure they have to speed up the recovery.... On YouTube their is a man who has never healed after 11 years..... It scares me to know that it might be permanent for some.... I can't work out or run no more because my body is to weak.... Can you work out? Also, do you get a natural erection without having to touch you penis? Does libido and sex drive back to normal?

 

[Joey2358]

i am taking zopiclone now...does anyone know if this will prevent invega sustenna to get out of my system?? dr. anne blake tracy told me so

@Tina3000 are you sure you haven't recovered? It's been a year for you. You can cry. I have been off it for 3 months and can't cry.... I also suffer from weight gain. Do you suffer from weight gain?

Yeah I've been working out twice a day for the last six weeks. Lost a couple pounds of fat and gained a few pounds of muscle in the process because I've actually been able to weight train and do cardio with some intensity. I could barely get myself to go for walks for the first few months. And some days I wouldn't even do that. So I've gotten leaps and bounds better in the exercise department.

And yes, I can get an erection without manual stimulation when I'm making out with my girlfriend. Although I think achieving an erection without any sort of manual stimulation is difficult for a lot of people to do, Invega or no Invega. As for my libido and sex drive, they are both great. I can have sex multiple times in the same day without any issues. The only problem i encounter is that I have a tough time achieving a 100% full erection, but I'm on finasteride which can cause sexual side effects like that. So idk if I can blame invega for that or not.

It's definitely a scary thought to think it might be permanent. Those types of thoughts made me borderline suicidal for several months. Whether or not invega causes some sort of permanent neurological changes in people, idk for sure. But I do know that there is a night and day difference between how I am now and how I was when I first got the shot.

Personally, I don't think you'll have to live through this hell for as long as you think. Sometimes I wonder if the people who say they never recovered many years after getting off invega are suffering from some type of psychological trauma that was caused by the invega...and not so much by the drug actually flowing through their bloodstream even years later. I'm going to get some neurological tests done soon so I'll let everyone know if there are any significant findings that provide implications about the long-term effects of invega on the brain.

Hi everyone

2 months ago I let you know that I've fully recovered from this poison after having waited 10 months off! Now I'm even better, I finally recovered today my periods! So, for the girls, don't worry they will come back as painful as before ! lol

I'm rooting for you guys, it's just a matter of time, be strong and patient you'll see the results, I swear it

With love,

Decisive

Do you have a normal sex drive? I'm a man and want to know if sex drive will fully recover. I also want to be able to workout,,, how long did it take for you to work out like normal.... I still can't run and its been 3 months since my last shot.... I got a total of 2 injections.... Have you checked if there's any Invega in your blood?

 

[xeplion]

2 month n counting... same for me. I cant work out... or im too lazy. but but but. my nrg lvl is rising i seem to enjoy laughs again :D

like that song ALWAYS LOOK ON THE BRIGHT SIDE OF LIFE.

Keep Calm n stay strong...


I also play games on pc keeps me going somehow. First i was like a animal Sleep Eat Shit. Animal is not even worse. Now i can play FPS games n perfom quite good... so times goes when i occupy myself with these silly games... then this POISON does not feel dat bad... if i didnt had a pc.

But moving around n doing stuff irl is pretty hard at this stage. So i look forward to what has to come... without this POISON. I regularly go to meeting with psyke nurse so i can show them i dont need that SHIT POISON. Stand firm n be strong they will fight you with everything they got ... n thats alot bs lies from the psykward. its all lies . Moneymaking pharma industry. how to sue the world farmacists n their like (JANNSEN) in my point of view its all lies. ONE CANNOT BE WELL AFTER BEING MEDICATED WITH UNNATURAL MEDICIN.
