Yeah well good luck to to you. I'm just saying your asking for things they probably don't prescribe for the reasons you want them. Plus regardless of the diagnosis being true or not you still got injected with antispsychotics. It's fucked.

Very fucked

My choice is to stop it no matter the circumstances with my psych doctor

Seriously just venting cause I have no where to get help from

I feel 0 oxygen coming through my nose

If my doctor thinks it’s not the Xeplion I will not show up to further appointments

Try to Put water on you
 
Did any of you guys visions get blurred when you received your injection? The clopixol i recieved blurred my vision.The akineton they gave twice helped with my vision but it's still a little blurred. Is there anything I can do about it or is there anything I can take?

There are plenty of recovery stories from people who received 2 or less shots. More than that, not so much unfortunately. I mean why would you keep talking about it once you discover you're permanently disabled.

I read all the past threads and I think you're kind of an outlier in that sense. A lot of people just stopped posting after a while from what I recall. I've also searched through reddit and it seems that with more than a few shots you do get permanent damage most of the time. That said, they are still alive, which means they may have reached a level of normalcy that's bearable, which is what I'm hoping for.

I think most people recover which is also probably why they stop posting.

That would be the positive interpretation. I hope I'm looking at it too negatively. If I had the energy, I would go back and reread all the threads while keeping track with a spreadsheet.

Bro I can’t even breathe from my nose due to it, nor can I sleep for more than 2 hours imagine that

I’ve been I got to wait till Monday for an appointment at first they gave me a inhaler for my chest that didn’t work and then a steroid nasal spray that didn’t work, I’ve been 5 times

I’m worried they won’t treat me if they know my psych doctors dosed me with something like this

I feel it’s treatable I just don’t know my course of action of getting it treated

I need to clear up the chest jolts when sleeping and the nose block

Your problems are breathing and sleep so I don't think there would be a problem bringing up invega. I hope you can at least get sleep meds to knock you out for the time being.

I wish, but the chest pain is so bad

I need something from them that’s going to unblock my nose man,

Mainly that

And fix my chest pains..

I believe the nose block can’t be solved by docs though
