Mental Health Coming off Invega/Xeplion (paliperidone) injections v. 10

[Trueart2]

Like 40 or 55 days idk

The half life is 3-6 days. It’s been eliminated from your body.

 

[rawbanana]

How do you know if the half lives are a lie?

There’s no accurate way to measure it. Using half lives to measure the metabolization if a depot injection is just not accurate. I’ve done research. And many anecdotal evidence from people here who should have recovered much sooner than they actually recover.

The drugs are put on the market without enough research in order to make money. Years from now we may finally see the truth come out but it will take a very long time because not enough people are affected for them to care.

Ok doc

Your doctor would probably tell you to keep taking it so.. there's that. They gave you the shit to begin with. I don't have to be a doctor to say what I said. I've taken Invega before for a year and I'm telling you.. you shouldn't still feel like you did when you were on the medication 14 months later unless it fucked up your brain forever.. and it doesn't.

My psychiatrist said I would need to be on invega for 6 months and after that I will get off of it fully. The 6 month mark came and I begged to get off invega or switch to something else . Wanna know what his reaction was? " You really thought I'd take you off invega after only 6 months, no no you will be on it for minimum 2 years" . Evil mf

Once I got home my family guilted me into continuing to take them because the doctor said so… it’s terrible. I’m just so heartbroken over this.

Stay strong and reach us because we understeand you.

Remember: only who took these injections can belive you, no other people, we know there is no support because we are talking to something is not even processable for people who don’t got the injections.

Maybe you was psychotic and you needed the medication, idk.. But Guess what happen when they put a non-psychotic under these injection what happen? I tell you what happen: 14 months after last injection only 10% recovered

No, me being something and you supposedly not being something has nothing to do with a fkn thing. I didn't have negative side effects past 3-6 months after I stopped taking it. You got problems 14 months afterwards. That has nothing to do with the reason why either one of us was given the medicine. The medicine is gone from your system so you got something else wrong with you. Probably need to work out and stop eating junk food.

So you are saying that i have all these sympthoms:

Sleep
• Superficial, non-restorative sleep, with continuous awakenings.
• Impossible to sleep past 6AM.
• Unable to fall asleep during the day.
• Pronounced dark circles, clear evidence of sleep deficit.

⸻

Cognition
• Memory problems.
• Problem-solving difficulties.
• Concentration problems.
• Trouble completing one or more tasks without forgetting.

⸻

Perception
• Altered integration/perception of time (biological clock)
• Normal state of consciousness altered (sensation of being “high”/“feverish and dazed”).
• Absence of emotions.
• Blunted perception compared to normal.

(Diagram: before risperdal → balanced perception of past, present, future; after risperdal → narrowed perception, reduced presence in the present.)

⸻

Sexuality
• Loss of sexual desire, drastic drop in libido.
• Almost complete absence of erections (flaccid, nearly nonexistent).
• Almost complete absence of orgasms (very rare, incomplete).

⸻

Physical sensations
• Very frequent headaches.
• Strange sensations in the head.
• Muscular tension/rigidity.
• Total loss of appetite, partial hunger.
• No response to stimuli such as nicotine/caffeine.

13 months update: Tinnitus very loud came out of nowhere in the right ear, now is extended on the two ear, center, sometimes is only in the left, sometimes is only in the right, sometimes is both, sometimes is center-like, but is always here.

Because i eat junk food and i don’t work out?
Why i developed these sympthoms only after the injections? Why i dint had any of these sympthoms in my life before these injections?


Probably you had psychosis = way more receptors D2, then when you stop taking antipsychotics you recovered quick becuse your brain produce way more D2 receptors than a non-psychotic subject.

This is why you fully recovered after 6 months: because you had psychosis.

This i Why i dint recovery after 14 months: because i never had psychosis.

What kind of pain? What is going on?

What was your dosage and number of injections for invega and did you recover at all?

What about you? How much time ago was your last injection? And what is the half life of What They injected you with?

Are you over weight or have a lot of body fat? I heard the drug stays longer in fat stores.

 

[anonymoususer777]

Does anyone know ways to flush the drug out of the body quicker? I heard drinking lots of water helps flush the drug out. Is this true?

I also heard exercise and walking help start moving things and so does turmeric. How true is this?

All true. I had earlier heard about turmeric doing something beneficial in regards to Invega; Can’t say it’s for sure about having it cleared out of the system. The biggest thing that cleans it out the body is SJW( Saint John Worts). Begin taking that, the only way Invega leaves your body is through piss. So you just gotta keep peeing out the shit from your body

 

[Matthew01]

I hate this lifestyle

 

[Dr. Morphine]

What was your dosage and number of injections for invega and did you recover at all?

I had like 12 over a year, long lasting injectable, I don't remember what the does, low to medium, still way too strong. I got over the negative side effects probably 3 months afterwards. It just seems like you might never recover because it has you so low it's insane.. but you do. I totally don't believe these people when they say they "never recovered" "from the medicine." There's just no fkn way.

Again, the reason why you or me was put on the medication has nothing to do with "recovery from the medication." If you stopped taking it 14 months ago and still have issues, you need to see a doctor, and don't let them put you back on the shit because then they'll never figure out what's really wrong with you. It's not the Invega if you've been off for a long time.

Tbf he’s already seen the doctor, and many testimony’s say the same thing. The doctors are generally uneducated on what to do when it comes to damage from antipsychotics, each one of the testimony re-interates this. I suggest checking out @cmf77 profile and his message history. He’s the only person I’ve seen who went to the doctors and actually got some definitive positive care from going to them for months at a time and eventually got better when everything was going so wrong for him.

@RisperdalConsta50mg situation is especially strange because Consta only had a half life of 6 days maximum, 6x5=30(which is the elimination). It’s been 13 months past the eliminatory stages for the drug. Granted it does take what seems to be a a period of time for recuperation of the mental and physical faculties and erasure of symptoms

I Only had 2 injections and its been 3 months since the injections. I dont see notice any significant changes. I still cannot run or exercise like i used to, sexual dysfunction, sleep issues, dystonia, eating too much, akithisia, loss of emotions, no motivation and others.

Did you fully recover, and how long did it take for you to recover fully? What were your symptoms? Are you very slim and have low body fat? Did you exercise a lot? Are you one of those people who benefitted from.invega?
