Imagine waking up, pulling back the bed sheet and having that focus and energy to take on the world like a man should, and to most importantly feel like a man. These soul destroying drugs saved my life but has made it so miserable in the process; suicidal thoughts because of a medicine, for real ?

Do any drugs work while being on this shit?
I hate being sober and on invega

The better question lies in 'do any drugs work after being on this shit' and ive yet to find user accounts that the pre-medication high from drugs like weed comes back :/

I smoked weed while on invega and it wasnt a 'hell yeah lets blaze 24/7 keep the high coming' but it always felt nice to watch movies or enjoy food more. Since I have no social life yet alone smoking buddies, it makes it harder. But now im tempted to smoke again because withdrawal is not gonna let me start a job i applied for. It may feel nice at times, you may get some insight or sprout of knowledge you want to look into but its mostly a 'ok i smoked, shits bad, lets just watch a movie, tee hee im smoking weed'

It may be totally different for you. Alcohol on the other hand is horrible. I dont get drunk and i hate the taste of damn near every type of beer or liqour in the first place.

I cant speak for hard drugs. Ive heard mushrooms are a great experience but again that is taken to induce halucination so im cautious to try it. Plus i think i saw a thread here that someone said it did nothing for them while on an ap but i could be wrong.

Yeah that what I did, half a tablet for two weeks, then I just stopped taking, I bypassed the quarter tablet phase LOL.
I was like: "fuck this sh*t dude, no more!"

Sadly nothing changed lol, still lazy to get up every day, I am starting to think this is normal and not invega related anymore.
Yeah I did blaze a cigar the other day as you told me to do, but I don't really know what I was celebrating lol

For the moment my first priority is lose the weight, then I start going out, and maybe feeling better again, lets see what life has for me.
 
Week 32 off the poison
Finally I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Noticing more improvements the last week even though my nose hasn't stopped running, maybe the final bout of withdrawal symptoms or just something unrelated.
Went to the pub for my once a week night out and woke up without a hangover for the first time this year, I might finally be able to handle beer and it won't be long before I'm chilling in the beer garden this summer although I'm taking it easy at the moment.
Managed to go for a hike yesterday and sort of enjoyed it even though I'm seriously unfit due to just lazying about all these months, just taking it easy on the exercise front at the moment, its a marathon, not a sprint and as long as I get my fitness back gradually I'm not to worried.
The depression has gone on waking up in the morning although I'm still sort of expecting to feel it and I've been coming around quicker and even managing to read the newspaper first thing.
Just been chilling out watching boxsets the last week and that is all I intend on doing for the next few weeks as I return to normal with maybe the odd bit of exercise thrown in.
Still on three beers and two joints a night as my medicine and it does give me something to look forward to each day although the effects are more sedating than a high feeling, the weed might not be the best although my receptors for getting drunk or high maybe still blocked by the poison, still its better than being sober imo.
I think I'm getting close to recovered and just to be able to feel pleasure in little things like having a cigarette sat in the sun did not seem possible a couple of months ago, I'm close to five half lifes going on 49 days and that does seem to make sense for me. I think at six half lifes I should be recovered and back living my life with a bit of effort on the exercise front although thats still another two and a half months off.
I'm starting to think of this experience as being sent to prison for a crime you didn't commit, the sentence being ten months. You've just got to get through it and there should now be enough information on this thread to give people hope that recovery is possible. Five or six half lifes and the nightmare will be over and it does get easier as the months pass.
Hang in there people, this experience could be the making of you and stay away from psychiatrists if you want complete recovery imo.

I had the not being able get high thing as well, like the weed just made me feel weard not the nice high u normally get. I think we feel this way because our dopamine receptors are dead, I remember while being on it I would still be able to get high, but after a while of being on the pill it did something to me. After a while of your receptors being antagonized day in day out the receptor can't take it anymore and then it dies
 
week 88

After stopping my coconut water and watching videos of the dalai lama, i feel horrible. Like my mind is dead again.

Everytime i think i'm getting better something happens And i go 3 steps back.

I might start smoking weed again. I felt human then
 
To anyone who is still recovering after 6-10 months, how did you feel at the 4 month mark? Cause I feel like its almost gone, yes I feel different waves of anhedonia come and go but for the most part I feel my creativity and positivity, its mostly just energy and deeper levels of focus that I'm waiting for. It feels like I'm not that far off.. Also it seems that once every week or so I will feel completely better with focus and energy, but it only lasts a few minutes, but it lasted a full 24 hours last week and it was great! Does this sound familiar to any of you and did you still have to keep waiting many months? Even if I have to wait 6 more months I'm not complaining tho cause this isn't so bad. Just boring. I agree with Bad robot, just like a prison sentence.. Whatever mistake you made to end up in the position, learn from it! For me it was taking too much Adderall at one time which induced a depression/ psychosis. But also I learned many more lessons and weirdly I believe this all happened for a reason. Remember if you do have some some type of issue like bipolar or skizophrenia, find the med that is right for you, there are still plenty of good meds out there that could be beneficial..

Did you receive the gluteal injection?
 
Deltoid. 234 mg, just one.

Things are getting better. I calculated the maximum elimation time which is 2 years and 2 months.
 
Hey Aiden21, can you explain your calculation? Cuz I thot the max elimination time was around ten months.

There's no unique max elimination time, it depends on the total of the doses injected and your metabolism (if you do a blood analysis of your creatinine level, you'll see if your kidney and loin have no problems eliminating the poison stored in your blood).
But normally, if Aiden has a good metabolism and doesn't take other drugs like antidepressants (I don't know if it's the case for him), and exercise to eliminate the poison stored in the fat, he could have been healed between maximum 8-10 months because he only had one injection in the deltoid.

Besides being too lazy to jog, I can still sit back and daydream about stuff with my imagination. Good to get sum feels back.
