Less dangerous long term yes but still painful to get off. Gabapentin which im on now does the same thing
That's why nothing is black or white. Whatever you say about benzos aswell they really taste like good drug and give me bliss and relaxation. I only tryed Tranxene tho. If you not overuse IT its safe
 
Which benzo you recommend the most for stress?

One of the best overall benzos imo is valium but that can be hard to get now because its seen by most shrinks as a old drug. Clonazepam is really good imo and if you get panic attacks bromazepam is really good for that. It kicks in pretty fast. But if its just general stress and anxiety i would go with clonaz

Clorazepate damn thats a weird one. But then again your in europe i think are you? That might explain it. I think clorazepate is mostly a anticonvulsant here

Idk but Tranxene was giving me blissfull feelings of love slow motion and sleep like baby. Love IT. Just my doc gives me the tiny package because they think we will get addicted.
 
I miss the buzz from caffeine so much. I feel it maybe 5% while on abilify. When I’m off aps it gives me such a high. Can’t wait to recover from this shit. Hopefully my CTO ends soon.

IT came back to me. I feel high on dopamine again. Yeah end CTO brother and never get into one again please 🙏 after my third rosenhan i understood that its better to have low dose seroquel and take it few times then end up on injection

Well you can get addicted yes that much is true. Im not addicted to benzos at the moment though i always take a break from them every month. I was on 6mg's of clonaz a day though when i went in the psych ward. I went cold turkey off it in there as they refused to give me any meds. That could have killed me
 
Does anyone know much about ritalin and whether it can help with antipsychotic induced anhedonia? I’m tempted to try it but don’t want it to effect my recovery or give me more damage. But damn it would be nice to feel some relief. Caffeine is not enough
I don't think ritalin causes damage. Someone took vyvanse and it helped them.
 
Somebody help me. Somebody please help me. How do you cope with this? What are your ways? I can feel the emotionlessness and joylessness in my sleep.

Strong coffee helps me cope. The caffeine gives me a very slight relief. Other than that nothing helps. Just thugging it out knowing it’s not forever.
 
I also listen to music most of the day to help drown out negative thoughts and rumination.
How,music mostly doesn't feel good to me. I don't feel an emotional connection to it. I don't feel an ethereal experience from listening to certain songs.

Neither do I. But I do get a little dopamine from it. Maybe because abilify is a partial agonist not a full dopamine blocker like other antipsychotics. For me abilify is far more bearable than invega for this reason.
 
It's not invega,it's clopixol and been off it for months,only had it once. Living is horrible.

I have never taken clopixol so i cant tell you how long it takes to recover. I cant find a half life for the depot injection but the half life of oral clopixol is 20 hours. How many months have you been off? Clopixol is a very strong dopamine antagonist so it may take awile to feel back to normal
 
@paranoid android what dose of olanzapine you on if you don’t mind me asking? After my second psychosis I was put on 20mg olanzapine and 10mg haldol together and that shit totally fucked me up.

10mg's is what im prescried. Sometimes when i take morphine i take 15 or 20mg's to help stop the itch so i can sleep.

20mg's with 10mg haldol seems like a very high dose to me. Thats a very high dose of haldol as well. The max dose of zyprexa is 20mg. Are you still on these meds?
