if we have severe anhedonia to everything, why doesn't it also include eating? , is that why people gain weight on antipsychotics cuz everything doesn't give them pleasure except food? . Could it be an evolutionary thing where food always gives us pleasure so we can survive ?

I think it goes back to Freud's theory of sublimation imo. When i was cut off from opiates on the outside i started doing loads of coke. Also at the same time i had severe erectile dysfunction from abilify so theres also that.

When i was in the psych ward and on invega i packed on a shit ton of weight so goddamn fast it was insane. All i did in there was eat, smoke cigs and drink cola. No wonder i got fat as fuck.

I don’t know if I should wait any longer or just end things now, just over 5 months off and mostly bedridden, i thought wanting to go for walks everyday as soon as I wake up was an improvement but I believe it’s the Akathisia still as I couldn’t sit still for the first 2 months.

I don’t think I’ve read of someone not improving until about 8 months but I seriously hate everything, i couldn’t see myself ever studying or working again, same with traveling or going places and watching TV / playing games - nothing’s interesting enough for me anymore.

Losing my faith was the biggest issue, knowing there’s probably nothing after death just makes me so upset and that there’s no help from God considering the amount of suffering going on in the world, I wish I was raised atheist because the religious beliefs also played a role in my Psychosis, falsely thinking I was talking to God.

Please, at least give yourself two years. People recover from this shit all the time.
 
Hey guys most problems are getting much much better slowly and slowly main problem is weight I lost 30 pounds 20 more to go but lately it’s been harder to lose weight sometimes I drop 1 or 2 pounds then gain it back maybe from eating too much because my appetite returned too but idk how to lose more I might start barely eating like maybe once a day and only a little to lose it all gym membership is too expensive for my family and I don’t like going outside much anyway just scared about how long it’s gonna take to lose all this fucking fat and how to lose it all

I took 20 in total with the injections, how many kilos did you gain? and how many injections did you have and how long has it been since you stopped?
 
I've decided to do semen retention to speed up recovery.
Semen retention is very potent and it has the ability to do wonders for you.
I will avoid doing it excessively so god mode won't rurn on again, otherwise I'm risking psychosis again.
 
It's a bold statement that's can't just surface immediately or it would be rejected easily
 
The only things that still kinda fun to do is eating and showering.
I don't feel the joy directly but it's kinda satisfying, that's all. So there's that.

Last recovery, porn was pleasurable, so don't give up guys, it's all coming back sooner or later.
