Joey, I hear you Buddy. This shit's weak bro. Everything has gone away except for the weak exercise(although its better and i haven't gained weight because i eat healthy) and the sexual dysfunction for me. Someone Still having social anxiety, I dunno man, even if the invega put them there in the first place 3 years off is a long time. But no one has come on here in less than 6-10 months and said they've gotten their libido back, and the ones that have... very few said it was 100% when they did, thats probably gonna take a couple years man straight up. so you may not like this and this is really hard for me to accept but its probably not gonna be 100% of your full erectile capacity anytime soon. Probably best not to let it piss you off and just go about your day (I have Hungarian Blood in me man so trust me this is really frustrating, I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy man)

I wanna ask the people on here who got it back (reasonably got it back), did it come back after a certain period of time AND by you choosing to not think about it, or did it just kinda randomly come back one afternoon when you decided to go give it a try and you thinking about it had nothing to do with it, cuz when people tell me "oh dont think about it and it'll come back" I'm usually just like dude that's bullshit. As much as I'd like it to be natural, if i have to do it to get it up Im fine as long as it came back close to what it used to be. Anyone who got it back to where they felt comfortable and they got MOST of it back please respond and let us know how long it took before you felt confident enough to go and ask a girl out if you feel comfortable responding.

Also I exercise a lot as I have gotten that ability back reasonably and I noticed that when I took it easy and only did short workouts for like 15-20 minutes 2-3 days a week in month 2 last month (Im on 3.5 months) with no pre workout and no concerta and took a walk everyday I woke up with much firmer Morning erections. Like honestly If i was in a relationship with a girl and we shared a bed every night and i woke up with this once or twice a week I would say that it is satisfactory for me and for her. So my morning erections have been much better than when i try to manipulate it myself... my main question is, "did exercise help or is it simply a waiting game", any input would be extremely valuable and appreciated gentleman, thank you and have a good Night.
 
Hi everyone

Ive bean following this thread for 6 months . I was misdiagnosed and forced to take a 100mg of invega monthly for 10 months. Every since i took it, I experience tormenting anhedonia, gained 30kg of fat, lost all my muscle and strength, acne on shoulders and face, slow facial hair growth, man boobs, erectile dysfunction and lowered sperm count, extreme fatigue, and a lot more.my fraudulent psychiatrist has lied to me non stop since i met him;
"Invega sustenna is new and side effect free"
"Wow! You look thinner!"
"No, invega doesnt cause weight gain, you just eat to much"
Etc.

Please if someone has bean off it for a year or so, when do i start loosing this ugly fat of my body?? Weight loss if damn impossible shile on an antiphycotic.

I hate to say it but it might be permanent.... Tina's been off it for a year and hasn't recovered. Aiden has been off it for 2 years and hasn't recovered... A guy on YouTube has been off it for 3 years and hasn't recovered.... It might be permanent. Then one more guy has been off it for 1 year and 2 months and hasn't recovered... It might be permanent.. I say at this point we make the creators of Invega take their med.
 
I guess there's always two sides to the situation.. people who back up psychiatry and those who think it's a scam. I mean, how much destruction must a drug cause before people say it's not worth it. The truth of the matter is, psychiatrists will continually lie and cheat to further their agenda. I don't think many people decided to become a doctor to actually help people. It makes sense they would do it for the money.

Joey, let's not tell people that they will never recover.. All we can do is hope for the best. For some people it might just take longer than others.

I've been doing crunches every day for about a week now.. I see no improvement. It's like some kind of indestructible alien cyborg fat on my belly. It's ridiculous. But ima keep trying. I've been thinking about liposuction, even though it's not really that much fat. But maybe that would get rid of the rest of the stored invega? Who knows.
 
I cant beleive just how invega ruined my body, i used to have a perfect bodybuilding body now it looks below average thanks to this disgusting poison. After i finish colledge im gana look to use some steroids to rebuild my body and burn the fat, im also looking to get a liposuction for my puffy nipples which was also caused by the invega. I quit bodybuilding and wrestling because of this poison , guys no longer respect me, girls also are no longer interested in me and nowadays i just can barely look at people in the eye. I hope all psychitrists burn in hell for being gigantic frauds and for ruining so many innocent lives
 
hi guys!
stopped smoking 15 days ago after 18 years 1 pack per day.
my orgasms are better but my libido is horrible.
in a few days there will be 6 months I got my lost shot.
Aiden how is your libido after 2 years? do orgasms get even better? mine are better but kinda suck...
still lacking willpower and libido.
thank you for your response.
 
Laz, DON'T use steroids they increase the chance of lactation and your hormones becoming dependent on them for testosterone production ESPECIALLY if not done correctly in which case your testicles might shrink use pre workout powder or concerta or adderal I highly urge you to reconsider that decision. Eduardo, thank you for responding. smoking cigarettes causes the veins arteries and capillaries in your thing to become clog and is a leading cause of ED. it is no surprise that your orgasms now seem a bit more intense as your body has had two weeks to flush out the toxins that are in cigarettes. when you say they're more intense, do you mean the mental euphoria associated with your orgasms, do you mean the volume and amount of semen you produce, your erectile capacity, how long you last, does it start to feel intense at the base, the more specific the better.

Sorry guys I don't mean to make this a forum exclusively about this, as i understand this is a forum about antipsychotics and mental illness, its just that euphoria in all aspects of life seem a little dull like music working out movies reading articles in the news (although it has improved in 3.5 months and I understand everyone saying it takes 6 months to a year) its just the sexual dysfunction and the absence of euphoria in THAT department really is really messing with me and I just want the most accurate time table as to when it generally seems like your able to get hard and do it again cuz i know people have said on here that they've gotten back together with their girlfriend and been able to function sexually again, so more success stories would be really encouraging, thanks.
 
And Aiden I hope you get better dude, drink lots of water and go on nice long walks with music, your gonna get better dude!
 
Guys, don't stress too much about your libido. Easier said than done I know...but erectile dysfunction can become mental if you are constantly worrying about not being able to get it up.

I was back to having a normal sex life just a few months off the Invega shot. Idk the exact date, but my sex life was back on track somewhere in the 4-6 month range.

I'm now at month 10 and I have no issues with ED or Anorgasmia. It's important to note that I'm also on finasteride (propecia) which is a hair loss prevention med well-known for its ability to cause sexual dysfunction in men. So, even though I was given a shot of Invega Sustenna AND currently take 5mg of finasteride per day, I have ZERO issues in regards to my sex life.

Dont think you're never going to recover just because a few people said they haven't, even though they have been off Invega for a long time. I used to struggle with ED pre-Invega and meds had nothing to do with it. I just had difficulty getting an erection a few times when I was hooking up with someone and this caused me to have really bad sexual anxiety that intensified my ED because that's all I would think about leading up to a sexual encounter...If you constantly think that you won't be able to get up, then chances are you wont be able to when the time comes. You don't have to go in-depth researching ED to find that many case reports of ED were caused by mental distress, not meds or some type of physical inability to achieve an erection.

And if you are going to choose to think you are never going to recover and focus on all the negative stories while ignoring the positive recovery stories, that's your choice. I completely understand why you would feel such a way. I know how difficult this drug can be to deal with. But don't tell other people that they are never going to recover. That doesn't help anyone. It only hurts. If you tell someone that they are never going to recover and they believe it, then what happens next? Some people who have received this med, myself included, have struggled severely with suicidal thoughts for long periods of time. If everyone kept telling me I was never going to recover when I first got off Invega then there's a good chance I would've just decided to say fuck it and down an entire bottle of pills. You never know what kind of impact your words might have on others, even over the Internet.
 
unexpected, my orgasms are better because it has been 6 months since my lost shot, not because of not smoking.
I have a kind of retarded orgasm, the pleasure comes after the ejaculation like too long. but while I was on the shot I had no pleasure at all. Anorgasmia.
 
Week 47 off the poison
It's a seriously fucked up world when you can be forceably injected with this shit, made a complaint to the hospital
All you can do is survive, the side effects have gone and I'm exercising daily to try and get my fitness levels back
 
Eduardo, that's good to hear man. I was finally able to quit smoking too after 8 years. Wasn't smoking as much as you though, less than half a pack a day. I just cant seem to enjoy cigarettes anymore. It tastes like death. That's the only good thing invega has caused. I was trying to quit before I got the shot, but I wasn't able to. Now I just vape at 10mg nicotine and chew 4mg nicorette gum. Can't seem to give up the nicotine. Everyone has their crutch I suppose. Just hoping I can sustain abstinence from tobacco once my side effects are gone.
 
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.
 
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.
 
Pretty soon this thread is going to be closed guys. We've hit the 1000 post limit once again on yet another Coming Off Invega Sustenna thread.
 
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.
