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

[PhuckInvegga]

Has anyone got their emotions back?
I cant get angry, cant get sad, cant cry. Sorry for the emotional speach but sometimes I think Ill be stuck in this condition for life.
plus my libido and willpower are gone.

Yes do not worry your emotions do come back. I felt the same way for so damn long now its month 8 I feel very content like I could live like this mentally, I just really need the libido to come back still. Improvements have been detected in that area as well. I have lost a lot of my weight and feeling good. Doing cleansing fasts now where I starve for 4 days and then eat a huge steak on the 5th day. Trying to burn off fat with minimal exercise is tough. Those type of dieting plans would've never worked a couple months ago in my anhedonia phase, willpower is everything. Normally people will never understand what invega actually does. Not even the scientists.not unless they had the shot and the very likely and prolonged adverse experience of such extents that sheer lifelessness is an accepted fate for us. And why? So a big global company can make more millions. I work for CVS and I believe other businesses in pharmaceutical companies will have to be the ones to realize this fatal flaw in human ethics on a global scale. Mental health victims are being exploited by the drug market. Jansens Pharmeceuticals' Depot injection of Paliperidone Palmitate, or what they call ''Invega Sustenna'', is so dam far off the path of morality, it's not even a debate, If you stand behind this injection, you will be defeated.

I honestly can't believe that there hasn't yet been a class action law suit against this Janssen. I mean from what it sounds like most of you have been chemically raped and tortured with a long acting substance that is clearly been proven to be toxic to the human brain and body. If all the people posting on this thread filed a lawsuit against Janssen you could change the world and psychiatry. People and the media need to know of your suffering.

Contact news agencies and tell your story. Tell them what this drug has done to you. If you live in America then you have the power and right to be compensated for the damage inflicted on you by this drug. You should each get millions for what Janssen has done to you. If they were forced to compensate all victims of this drug they would surely go bankrupt pretty quick.

There should be no legal drug that chemically lobotimizes you, robs you of all creativity, imagination and emotion. It is 100% criminal what has been done to you guys and you have the right to be fully compensated for the damage to your lives.

From what I understand you all took the injection with the best of intentions with full trust in your doctor. I also understand that most of you had no idea that this substance would absolutely devastate your livelihood.

Permanent loss of sexual function, adehonia, breast growth, weight gain and diabetes are no trade off for any type of psychiatric illness. Especially when there are multiple alternatives that have demonstrated equivalent or even superior efficacy against psychosis with zero side effects.

You should all sue the shit out of Janssen

Bad Robot...
did your anorgasmia\ sexual anhedonia went away after month 6?
its almost 6 months for me and I still have no pleasure at all after orgasm.

The sex drive returned at month 5, but I used testosterone gel daily from month 4 to month 8

 

[Lazar]

We cant sue anyone for the poison, psychitrists and pharma companies convinced the goverment that these drugs have no side effects. Im currently on testosterone replacement therapy and it has somewhat improved my life quality but it hasnt helped with my muscle weakness, anyone recovered from that?

 

[strity1994]

Words cannot describe the despair i feel now, i spend 99% of my day daydreaming, daydreaming what my life would be like i were never forced to take this poison. Im constantly praying to god to take me back in time to a time before taking any toxins or to just give me a short life to end this nightmare. Im sorry if im annoying because of my negativety i just feel the need to talk about this to poeple who share the same problem as i do.

Ur an inspiration dude voice for the peoples

 

[NotAPsycho]

I've tried 6 or 7 different lawyers and they all say I can't sue anyone unless a doctor diagnosed me with growing breasts. I guess because you can physically see that side effect, where as you can't see all the mental problems and it would be hard to prove. They have the whole system wrapped up to where no one can bring them down.

 

[iridescentblack]

Im currently on testosterone replacement therapy and it has somewhat improved my life quality but it hasnt helped with my muscle weakness, anyone recovered from that?

Almost. When I was still on Invega injections I used to only be able to do about 25 - 30 push-ups. I'm up to about 43 push-ups now. But considering the size of my muscles, I should be able to do twice that.

I dont know how subtle this drug is but its effets are some positive and others very negative. As the poster Jmorin said it really does affet the thyroid that is responsible for our methabolism and makes people fat. I'm fat without gaining any weight, i hope its not permanent and when the thyroid starts to fully work again my stomakh will get bakk to its original size.

This thread should be klosed briefly, Im with you guys in this battle against the poison, for me its going to be one more month hopefully taking it (pills) and then its up to the pdok to tell me if im good enough to kome off it. I dont trust pdoks.

When I kome out I wil write a report about it. best of luk to you all

 

[Invegaman]

I'd never thought 5 months later with a new thread gone by that I would be in the exact same position, same side effects e.g motivation and sexual side effects. The only thing that has changed is my body fat which has gone up whilst muscle mass has decreased.

I hope version 3 of this thread continues, I need to read some more inspiring stories to keep my hope alive. At the moment its dwindling.

 

[unexpected175]

Dude Spiralspider you gotta get off that shit, I mean if its to a point where your just taking the pills and you won't be forced on the shot, than by all means do everything in your power to avoid the shot and make sure this is the last prescription you ever fill (pack your bags just incase they write you for another script and go to grandmas or a friends bro or a homeless shelter if you have to make a point to your parents if they're the ones forcing you thats how i got on this, that your done and you'd rather never see them again than take this shit trust me don't be dramatic it'll work).. Guys for the working out talk to your P-Doc tell him your having a really hard time focusing and that you need ADHD Medication Concerta specifically to be more productive. it will decrease your appetite and it'll give you energy to work out, or you can try Welbutrin although Concerta worked better for me. Just make sure you take it early in the morning and start getting productive, because this shit does wear off around 8-10 months from everything I've heard its the being out of shape and inactive for a full year that makes its so difficult to lose that newly added weight.

Trust me I know I was studying to become a personal trainer so I KNOW about good healthy habits ( and I'm still gonna be a trainer) PLEASE guys don't let yourselves go you GOTTA push yourselves I know it hurts but lay off the milk and the dairy for a while, drink water eat fruits and veggies and only eat light lean healthy unprocessed meat. make no mistake this shit is poison but it GOES AWAY the brain will reconstitute itself after its cleared your system in about a year (if a girl gets her period back than we will get our sexual functioning back) I'm only 3 and a half months off and my motivation has gotten so much better, I'm not constipated my muscles aren't that weak so i can lift and box the only thing Im battling is being able to distance run and the sexual side effects (but more is coming out when I masturbate so thats gotta be an improvement sorry TMI) but you know what theres nothing I can do about it so its best not to think about it and not make others around you negative, just accept that you probably won't be having sex with a hot girl for a while, if you really break it down its really not that big a deal I mean relationships are distracting, just make friends with a couple of girls (thats what I've done).

and honestly if this shit never goes away (which I don't think is gonna happen given people saying it has come back to them after about a year sometimes less) just tell the girl about it if you 2 start making out and she reaches for you just tell her the truth! Lol, tell her the arousal part of your brain has been altered because you were misdiagnosed and took something thats prescribed on Jail Meds.Com (I'd be really delicate about presenting that information to her but if your desperate and have to tell her you got domesticated and shot up with something that prevents dudes from humping each other and fighting in Jail than by all means tell at your own discretion, but honestly all you'd be doing is making her see you through the prism of sexuality, and only seeing you as a man based on how much you can pleasure her is some weak ass caring about what she wants nonsense, find a girl that respects you for something more than that I know easier said than done but that shit gets old after a while. good luck everyone remain positive and have a good day

So... since you don't know when its gonna come back, honestly, your just gonna delay how quick it comes back by obsessing over it, make the change get productive and think about something else you guys have any questions just ask me on here Im an open book you don't have to private message me unless you really want to Its just that i never check the private message

You know you don't have to take the pills just because the doc said so. Especially if it worsens ur quality of life

Hello friends,please anyone give clearence calculation method.

Thank you,

 

[Jmorin]

Update i got my blood test back and at 10 month i still have 1.2 ml in my blood at 7 months i had 2.8 ml so that show you how long it takes to come out of your system its looking like it will take over a year to clear completely. Well i am doing alot better but the closer i get seem like the harder it gets because now i have some emotion so the up and down seem to be alot harder.My phycatris tell me its not enough to really work i look at it like this if i drink a beer it effects me cause its in my blood or if i smoke a joint it effects me so how in the hell is a dopamine blocker thats in my blood is not going to affect me in my eyes into its completely gone i will still effect me and expearence some sort of sideeffect like hard to get out of bed in the morning and then once i get going its hard to go to sleep.I do think once its gone i will be a 100% and educate on government drugs wich is a plus but it sucks i had to do it this way. For the people that are in the early months of this drug you need to be strong because it very hard and a long road to get better but you will. like i said before just tell your self i am ok its just the drug that making me feel this way and push through it. Listen to your phycatris be polite dont piss them off! he or she will offer you something and just say no i want to do it naturaly.(Don't fuel the fire with more drugs that wreck your brain) Take omega 3 a men or women vitamin natural testosterone booster eat healthy try to find something to pass time wich is really hard when nothing excite you but that really all you can do its a very long waiting game but just listen to your body every month you will experience something good and bad i just tell my wife when i do and i say well that something different but at least it something so hang in there everyone be strong we can beat this shit and tell are story.I want thank everyone else who comment something they where experiencing on this drug cause it made me understand what was going on.Thank you!

 

[Invegaman]

My advice to people having sexual issues is to get prolactin checked via blood test, even 5 months since quitting, my level is 3x the typical baseline amount which is not good and is the most common cause of erectile issue in regards to antipsychotics. My psychiatrist has referred me to see an endocrinologist and I also have a urologist appointment next week because I want to resolve this hormone issue as soon as. This is all a result of Invega.

 

[Spiralspider]

Thank you Jmorin you gave me some useful information too ! Youre almost there!

You know you don't have to take the pills just because the doc said so. Especially if it worsens ur quality of life

Well thats easier said than done, if I dont take the pills i will get hard withdrawals from it, I need my pdoc to agree that I dont need it anymore and to prescribe me lower dosage pills to taper it off.
I did a cold turkey once and at the 5th day my head was making strange sounds like a motor of a car and saw some crazy images when I woke up, not hallucinations tough, just a very real dream. and then I took it again

 

[Joey2358]

How come Tina hasn't recovered after 1 year? How come Aiden hasn't recovered after 2 years, how come this one guy hasn't recovered after 1 year and 2 months? And how come this one guy on YouTube hasn't recovered after 3 years? Is it permanent? I hope not. I just want my old life back.

Hey Jmorin how can I check my to see if it's in my blood.... I asked my doc and he said they couldn't check... Did your natural erections come back?

 

[Joey2358]

This is my 4 month off the med and I still feel no improvement. I got a total of 2 shots.

 

[Jmorin]

I think invega makes you feel like that i went from superman to a zombie all i could think about was my life was over for the first 4 month i couldnt even take a shower it was a struggle to even put my cloths on the only thing that gave me realive was to eat so i did gain 40# in 4 months.At 4 months i got my first window i was able to cutt wood started getting my erection back and then it went away and i felt like i would never get better again.It went like that for the next 4 months then all i did was search the internet for answers.for 2 more months i started getting sences back then started coming the feelings my libido still comes and goes but when its there its strong.the drug is made to release everyday so in the early months its alot of dopamin blockers your brain only make so many then the drug blocks them all and you feel no pleasure and can barely function. As the drug splits in half every 50 days you start to get some pleasure back so it does get better as time passes but you will experience withdrawl.(body aches stiff neck anger shortness of breath head aches joint aches depression and alot more)the first 6 months i do not think i ever slept because when i went to sleep i was in dream land it was like my brain never shut down but it was like i felt pleasure when i was dreaming so that all i wanted to do because when i was a wake i was a zombie with no emotion but it did get better.10 months i am able to kayaking, riding dirt bike walking ,work on cars things i used to do. I still struggle in the morning i think it because the drug release then and blocks dopamine but its only enough to slow me down in the morning as i get going my body wears it off then i get going and start to feel normal so hang in there you will be able to do stuff again the brain is very strong and will heel but you have to wait for the poison to wear off which sucks.o yhea i did destroy my testosterone and the phdoc told me he did not think it would return and wanted me to take testosterone shot i told him no i did not want to put more poison in my body so i didnt as the poison wore off my testosterone started going back up on its own the drug just stops things from working but as it decreased the body started to return to normal that why i think i will recover because i was normal before the shot i just ate to much thc hang in there be strong you can beat this

Hey Jmorin how can I check my to see if it's in my blood.... I asked my doc and he said they couldn't check... Did your natural erections come back?

Ask for a paliperidone test check for resperidone and hydroresperidone that what invega is they just use a different name.xeplion is the samething to its a way they can get you to take it so you dont no about the breast development law suit and make it sound like a wonder drug at least that what they did to me.
