Its difficult to put a percentage on. Some times i feel more healed than i actually am(which is just a shattered dream, but even shattered dreams are progress...the very notion to myself i improved is improvement)
Im not my old self anymore, and i cant know what id be today if i wasnt on invega. I try not to think about that to much.
I lost all my muscle mass and muscle memory. It ruined my metablism. I Kept fat while losing weight. Eventually lost most of my fat including the mild gyno. It turned my IQ into mush. Physical pain constantly.
Some things i did
- took lots of little walks or one long one. If i could walk more hours after i got back from the long walk id walk a little more.
- i walked in the cold a lot
- deep breathing
- energy drinks( sugar obviously bad, including for brain health. But i was already addicted to them and they gave me minor relief.
- lots of tea
- St johns wort
- AREDS (eye multi vitamin)
- light work like cleaning and showering.
- re learning basic reading comprehension by reading. I could not understand almost anything including tv shows that i previously mocked for being dumb.
- Prayer
-i was forced into social situations i didnt want to be in and it helped.it took months to get to that point and being around the right people is key
- took klonapin for sleep and anxiety.
- its took me six months before i could work odd physical jobs again. It got easier with each one.
- rode public transport. Helped with confidence, had to map routes out prior which took what i now consider abstract thinking. It also helped with social anxiety, but the best part is you dont have to talk to anyone.
- Smoked marijuana (THC and CBD strains.)
- tried to eat healthy and take as many supplements as possible but had little money.
- Fasted (still drank energy drinks though, so a dirty fast.)
