Here I am boys, after almost 1 year from posting here. It's like 15 months, the last time I took Invega. I feel veryyy slight (13%) improvements though in my cognitive abilities but has'nt come back for a big part. My dopamine receptors are still shit for a big part, don't feel pleasure as others. Ritalin 10 mg helps quote a bit with the depression,anhedonia but can be addictive. Ive decided to switch to modafinil (I have seriously surpressed the fact I have ADD and the ap's having taking a big roll on my cognition and mentale health), now I'll switch back to ritalin.
Funny thing is I have surpressed most of these issues and used coping mechanism as wearing my glasses whole time (as saying,not wearing them where responsible for my cognitive issues). Youve heard it though how fucked up my reasoning back then. Sorry if my writing is still shit, but I feel improvements. Sadly video games are still meh to me.
Exercising helps quite a bit. I'm 20, still not in university yet (should already been there sadly, in my 2nd year

. I'm now rotting here at home dealing with anhedonia. Might search for a student job and apply for college instead of university (my dream). I guess I might not catch up on the courses at university.
I dont have the same level of motivation as others do. I always wondered (due the supression)why other people where happy and I not, now I know why. Or why people where always motivated and I have 0 motivation. Or why I couldn't follow the doctor's direction.I acted with a sense of superiority (thinking it was dus covid lockdown,other people having the same problems) now I do see that it's all a cope for nog having enough dopamine receptors.
I feel little dopamine hits, but that's what they are 'little'. I'm still jeaulous and resentful to others (I know these 2 are bad things to have and I know deepful that other people can't do anything about it). But that's because of the dopamine receptors and that people have more of Them and the fact ive surpressed the fact that antipsychotics ruined me.
I also have 0 plans ahead me. Difficult when your dopamine receptors are nuked. I see no future behind me. Only thing I van do now is feeling like a zombie and struggle with having no thoughts.
Sometimes you simply want to die. It's like God who put you through this situation to survive.
I hope you van onderstand
Cheers
