invegaanon were you in a hospital in michigan? i was, just wondering because i feel like this shit rarely happens in hospitals except for a few in the nation run by scumbag waste of oxygens i was unlucky but also my fault for having a big meltdown about insomnia from their antidepressants so they switched me to the poison there, fuck i burn so many bridges man
Yeah, you should tell me which one in a DM.

I'm certainly going to a cafe and an art museum with a friend tomorrow, looking forward to it. I feel a little happy and excited for something for the first time in months.

Edit: Spoke too soon about my plans, it looks like we're going next week though.

PSSD update:

I feel the tiniest bit of sexual pleasure now and I no longer feel anesthetized, but there is a severe loss of sensation. Let's hope it keeps improving, if I could just feel 50% of what I felt before by next month, I could keep going.

Is there anyone on here who’s fully recovered from this and if so how many shots and how long did it take.
most people fully or almost fully recover, some people dont recover but it is rare hopefully and it usually happens from what i understand if they had an extreme reaction such as burning brain pain
 
I recovered 70% after 9 injection of xeplion last injection 75 mg in march and i still taking 0.5 resperidone every day , dont worry it will get better with time , just live your life don’t stay in home and waiting healing
thats a really good sign i have no doubt you will fully recover! stay off risperidone and other meds if you can i promise you will feel MUCH better! if you are in the US and are forced to take meds move to another state if you can and if you are in europe move to another country if they are forcing you to take meds if they are not then stop taking meds right now you will feel way better! risperidone is POISON its literally the same thing as xeplion but one atom difference!

Im in algeria and i have cannabis and mdma induced psychose and i will stop meds after 1 months or two , tapering is very important in psychiatric meds

weed isnt for everyone i personally never became psychotic from it and it was an extremely effective natural antidepressant and natural anti anxiety med for me now it just intensifies invega so i stopped doing it until i recover
 
Ya it took the better part of a year for me to feel normal after getting off invega and abilify. The erectile dysfunction was the first thing that went away that took like 3 long months. But my adhd type symptoms didnt go away until i was switched to zyprexa. Now i cant even tell i take an anti-psychotic. I have been working out like a motherfucker since i went on zyprexa so i dont gain weight and it's working
Makes no sense you had more than 10 injections. I had 5 and still have erectile dysfunction 6 months off. I’m not doubting what you’re saying but fuck seeing this shit makes me hopeless I’ve barely made any progress. Half way to suicide date.
 
Well I randomly gained 6 pounds from barely eating. Had been same weight for over a month this is so fucked up.
 
I am going to agree with xeplionhell.

I have beeen on mosts aps and i have also been on risperidone for two years and although it was bad it wasnt as bad as invega. Invega side effect DONT go away pretty fast. Pill side effects are over in 24 hours.
Kind if sucks because no one in my life believes me when I say I still have side effects they tell me its my "mental illness".
I probably wouldn't believe someone myself if they told me they were having severe side effects from a month lasting injection they took months ago.
But here I am in that position.
Plus there are always those ppl who dont get side effwcts and are actually helped by it.
Frustrating
How long you been off of how many injections?
 
Guys how come I don’t get that much rush of excitement when speeding fast in a car like I used to. Is that a lack of adrenaline??
 
i think haldol and first gen are even more damaging the loading doses do the most damage because its so much at once did you have burning brain pains or other extreme reactions?
At beginning my whole body was like being cooked in acid including brain, extreme burning pain everywhere except for limbs such as hands and legs.

That burning pain was the weakest in the brain for me (it was strongest in my upper body like chest, stomach, spleen and gut), except for moments when it would start pulsing.

Not only adrenaline, adrenaline creates that feeling by stimulating dopamine and working along with it, adrenaline is also dopamine agonist, it binds to dopamine receptors in brain while invega blocks dopamine synapses (it blocks receptors and productions) also blocks adrenaline but a bit less.

That mechanism of action creates anhedonia.

That reaction isn't extreme or damaging to the body, it's brain translating suffering into pain. That pain can be extreme, undescribable and unimaginable and for many invega sustenna users it is. As someone who has had it I can say I wouldn't want it to my worst enemy.
