Day 225

Feeling overall very good, recovery is such a slow process that there is not as much satisfaction as some people think during the recovery. Maybe when I'll reach complete remission, I will feel this way. But for now, it is more relaxation, calm and forgetting how awful it was a few months ago. I have kicked invega's butt and I am very glad it is coming to an end. A few more weeks before I get the pre invega strength
 
@Yeshuah I got my last shot in June. I didn?t have any anxiety just flatness. I don?t know how I?ve made it this far. I?m still not sleeping after 6 months. I thought I?d be better by now. The doctor told me 3 months I read it would wear off in 6 months and nothing has happened yet. I miss my thoughts and emotions.
 
hey guys, I have to admit, that I am noticing improvements daily now. I was very careful about telling people I'm improving, because I didn't want them to think that it's gonna be very fast now until I'm fully healed, but I think I am ready to tell now. My movements are much softer now, I got much more speed when I walk, it doesn't feel like something is holding me back, I can turn my head around more easily, my pee is like 70% clearer, my sleeping is not perfect, but it's improving. The rest is quite the same. But I am all in all more hopeful. The powder is doing wonders for me and I recommend it to everyone, you can't do anything wrong with it. You can take it for a month and see if it helps. I already made another order of it, along with his kidney formula and his night (sleep) formula. I will update on how that is helping. Keep going, we will make it!
 
@lifeline I am sorry to hear that you're still in a bad spot. Try the powder I am talking about. I started taking it around your time and since then I'm improving daily. Fasting and diet is helping as well. Hang in there
 
Day 226

Feeling good, it has been like that for 2 weeks. And it is only getting better. I talk normally, my mind is slowly getting sharper, I can run, have a small workout, I sleep well, my energy levels are good, I can masturbate no problem, I am more confident.
 
Hey guys,

It's been a while since my last update.

My last injection was roughly 6 months ago and even though I'm not healed things are slowly getting better.

I still have no motivation to take a shower or brush my teeth or even leave the house for that matter, but my mind is definitely sharper. Not as it used to be but now i have the motivation to watc the whole day documentaries and actually have an inner dialogue about it, draw conclusions and everything. Question myself.

The akathisia is pretty much gone, but sometimes it's hard just to stay still at the same spot instead of just waiting standing still.

In regards to the libido, i don't have natural erections, but i can masturbate no problem, it feels pleasurable almost like before and the sperm discharge is getting fuller and fuller.

The worst two things would be my acne it's still pretty severe and no changes to that so far, and my hair is still falling way quicker than it used to be. Oh and the alcohol still has no effect, or it actually does it makes me feel like shit.

I wish for hope for everyone in this fight we will get through this shit guys. This is the hardest battle of our lives.

Hang in there!

@Sav91 thanks for the info, anyway today I am calm.

Yesterday morning I had an espresso at the bar and later I felt angry for no reason, it wasn't like pre Invega anger, it was like I could feel just the "core" of the anger, I don't have better words to explain it but it was different than anhedonia I can tell you.

One of the symptoms of invega withdrawal is extreme anger. People have told me I'm a completely different person

Do you have emotions or vivid dreams back?
 
Hello,
I have experienced psychotic episode in May 2018 and have taken AP ever since. First it was Risperidone combined with some other and for the past 4 month it has been Xeplion (Invega).
Next month I am scheduled to start taking Invega Trinza. I am not really fond of this idea and would like to get myself of AP. My doctor says I would need to take them for at least 3 years after the episode.
What are your thoughts on this and do you think I can get off medication before I start taking Trinza withouth suffering from relapse? I am feeling very well withouth any psychotic delusions except side affects from Xeplion.
 
I just saw a video on youtube that someone has permanent sexual dysfunction from antipsychotics. If that is the case for me, I will end my life. @lifeafterinvega Has that come back for you FULLY?? I think I made the biggest mistake in my whole life. I am so afraid, even with the improvements I have. It's better than in the beginning, but compared to how I was before I feel like 5-10% recovered in 7!!! months.... Maybe I should stay away from the bullshit the internet has to offer. There are a lot of scary things. There are still days where I just wanna end it and the improvements are not satisfying to me :(
