Hey guys, just dropping in to remind everyone that recovery is possible. I got my last injection in June/July 2024, and I've almost entirely recovered. The funny thing is I can hardly remember the invega experience. I think this is because of disassociation/not being able to form memories properly in that state.
Most recently, my energy levels are back to baseline. Doesn't feel like I'm dragging a corpse around when I walk. Listening to and making music is enjoyable again and informed by my emotional state.
You will recover from this garbage injection. I know it's hell, I've been through it and you can survive it as well.
Take vitamins, Lions mane, fish oil, Magnesium Glycinate, st Johns wort (warning not to mix with antidepressants etc) and exercise as often as you can (I went for runs sometimes more than twice a week for 15 min at the worst of the invega hell experience, which was extremely difficult).
Exercise helps the brain recover, long term. Short term I wasn't even getting that rush you usually do from exercise, but I get that again now. Just keep in mind every time you exercise, you are quickening your recovery, even if it doesn't feel like it.
If anyone wants to talk feel free to DM me.
