Hey roofman, what you’re describing sounds a lot like the anhedonia a lot of people in this thread mention, it’s a lack of pleasure for things once enjoyed… in my experience with anhedonia is that it’s not a constant thing that is 24/7, it kind of lasts for a few days in a row maybe, then I gradually get out of that feeling. You still are able to enjoy things like you used to but it might be changed up so now you have a day or two where it doesn’t feel that way. But I remebmber you telling me you did heal some so I’m wondering if maybe you are also experiencing depression that’s altering things

Would you be able to get your paliperidone blood levels tested? People here are trying to find out how much recovery actually correlates to paliperidone left in the blood… would be really great if you could. GP should be able to do it for you

how and what would that answer
 
does anyone struggle with their temperature, like the suddenly burn up for no reason and cant cool day, i get it mostly at night, its awful, no matter what i do i cant cool down. then if i have been outside in the cold and come in, it takes a very long time to warm up, its like the body temperature core is mess up.

i wish i knew,i feel there is no hope or any way to fix it, i feel its over for me, i dont think there is a way out from it, i have been like this for a year now since my first injection 10 months= sice my last injection its murder i dont think there is anything you can do
 
If you’ve spoke with me you’ll know that I spoke a lot about the loss of my period. I couldn’t understand how Invega could stop my body from going through its natural cycle like that.
I was upset because it’s like that poison sent me into early menopause. I felt like with the return of my period, I’d know for a fact that my body was healing. I’ve been feeling pretty normal lately. I’ve been naturally doing things that used to make me happy. I have been living my life as if nothing ever happened to me. I woke up this morning to the return of my period, after 16 months off of Invega.
God is good!

Hi Kia, once you stop the medication, your body and mind eventually returns back to normal it may take 1-2 years though. But it will be worth the wait just push through it

Also during World War II during the German bombing of London there was a mental facility there where the men there couldn't function at all and were just in some sort of a catatonic state all day. When the bombing started and their country needed them though these guys just sprang into action and started driving ambulances and fire trucks. That sense of higher purpose to do something is something that we need right now.

no.
Those of us working stil have anhedonia. I have a pupose rn. I workout 50% of the time before and after work. Sometimes only b4 sometimes only after. Every day i dont work, i do a hard hike, sometimes doing it twice in a row. So every day i am working torwards a goal.(eliminating invega and rewiring my brain)
Thing is, its not working at all.
I am a complete shell of who i was i dont feel good emotions at all.
B4 invega i woukd get huge dopamine rushes after working out or doing a hike now i dont.
I definitely have a mission im on. My anhedonia is still severe. I have a purpose.

ow long have you been off invega and how many shots did you get?
 
So now I’ve regained my appetite and thirst, I can feel nicotine and coffee, but I’m still having involuntary movements, errections are at about 80% ( sorry if tmi) , anhedonia at about 70% healed.

I still get waves out of no where that lead me to falling into hopeless dispair tho and I feel like this must be the drug going through the system at a very low dose ? Does anyone else experience this ?

Day 216. Main things now are anhedonia libido and errections healing 100% and involuntary movements fading.

7 months
