Coming off Invega/Xeplion (paliperidone) injections v 12

This is a forum for people recovering from invega but we are not uniquely suffering because of invega… you are not being mocked because someone who hasn’t had invega specifically relates to you in some way… I think this line of thinking is really harmful and unhelpful
 
It’s just impossible to keep stay at sleep after 5AM, tinnitus and phantom pain on top of the brain just won’t keep sleeping after that hour. Still impossible to nap during the daytime and i cannot feel tiredness, so I force myself to go to the bed at 10PM around..
 
If you want weed to start working, you need to smoke regularly even if you can’t feel it at first. Over time, the cannabinoid receptors start to open up.
I chose a very potent variety of weed to affect the receptors as much as possible. Now I can get high off weed and ketamine, even though I can’t feel benzos anymore due to an ecstasy trip. It has alleviated my anhedonia.
When I’m sober, I just play video games and listen to music. There are fewer things that attract my focus, so I don’t watch stuff like I used to.

What about alcohol?
 
Alcohol starts working after a year, invega isnt supposed to target gaba receptors but it fries the majority of them for some reason. benzos really helped me cope. try not to abuse them because the receptors are freshly open.
 
I used to take amusulpride before invega and it erased all negative thoughts, made me calm and talkative, and it also had a high. After invega It doesnt work as it was, it doesnt have any effect on me. it was the only med that helped me with my voices and now I can't even deal with them. I take abilify now but it doesnt work as solian used to, which had an instant effect to counter voices. So basically it destroyed the fun part of my life and on top of that I can't heal myself. Fuck that man.
 
I'm saying it blocks the majority of receptors in general, when the common knowledge is that it only affects dopamine and serotonine receptors. I saw a post of someone who tried a lot of drugs that work on many different receptors and none of them worked for him. the first 10 months i couldnt feel benzos atall even though chatgpt denies that invega block gaba receptors.

190 days since my last injection of abilify. A few days ago I noticed an improvement in my anhedonia.

Mind and body feel lighter, more energy, better sexuality and music enjoyment has improved.

If I consider the half of of the drug to be 40 days I have around 3-4% left in my body.

I know it made my benzos less effective.
 
I have a severe brain injury. This drug killed several parts of me. Why damnit

Today is 12 months of my last injection, didnot recover yet. Idk what to say anymore or what to hope for. Still can’t feel music, zero motivation and physical energy or strength. Sexual dysfunction is still here. I am just counting my days for the next 6 months now….
 
Anyone hear hearing voices?
Ive had voices tell me weird things, like go to a lake and undress and go in the water and we will pick you up with our spaceship. Then i do it and they say didnt like my double chin and leave.
Thats the weird stuff I hear as a Schizophrenic.
 
Why in the actually fuck do they injected me with something designed to people like that? I just had panic attacks, it was not necessary to inject me with anti voices and anti delusions shit at the maximum dose aviable, just what the actually fuck they did these pidgeon to me i hope they die in agony because of stomach cancer

nope never heard a single voice in my life. You are schizophrenic i am not.
 
I had insomnia from invega, i used to sleep 4 hours, wake up then sleep for another 3 or 4 hours again, now that im on abilify i can only sleep 5 hours maximum if im lucky. I have levomepromazine to make me sleep but it doesnt work. does anyone know pills that would make me sleep normally that actually work even though my receptors are still blocked ? i cant rely on benzos because they help me get through the day and i dont want to take them to make me sleep.
