Do Antipsychotics cause brain damage? I find it bizarre that i can't cry or scream or do anything abhorrent. I'm just slow and quiet now, completely disabled. How am i supposed to live like this? Spend decades bedbound like this? Will science find a cure for this?

i was able to get angry a few times and scream really loudly which is a good sign but i was taking testosterone booster then

Christ on a bike... Are you still forced to take these drugs after such side effects? Who's doing that to you?

No not anymore. My parents made me take psych drugs until I reached the age of 16. (16 is when ypur legally allowed to refuse medical care in my state). But because my psychiatrist did not let me get off of risperidone 3 mg or prozac and concerta(I was on all three, and looking back it made no fucking sense) so I cold turkeyed all of them at once(I was made to take proxac for 8 years since I was 8)cold turkeying led me in to psychosis, likely from ssri and risperidone withdrawal. So I was forced meds every time i would end up in a ward cold turkeying the meds I woukd be forced to take in the psych wards. Put in psych wards 8 times. Am now 19.
 
Is anyone worried about withdrawal symptoms? I heard its terrible getting off antipsychotics cuz you get nauseas and some get symptoms of psychosis. With invega I know it self tapers so its better but still.

Why would we? Most of us already withdrew from this a long time ago. I, for instance, didn't feel anything when i did.

there’s way too much unknown about the brain to properly answer this question. But the incident of people who suffer severe anhedonia and then recover within a year or so would imply that it’s reversible, whatever it is. You’re too early in the journey to be freaking out like this, as am I. How long since your last injection?

No fight or flight. No adrenalin. No emotion. No crying.

I’m stuck in a vessel.

This isn’t even just the injection. I think it started with the first pill of seroquel. I even got radio like messages in my head the night I first took a pill. Maybe it was when they took me to a bunker when I was inpatient.

I am God, they want to explain why I’m immortal, it’s everyone after me, the fbi, the cia, the god damn Russian authorities.

The court doesn’t do Jack shit, they are corrupt. They won’t force me on an injection, but every other fringe stuff is ok. There are parts of my memories just missing. What do they think they’re doing?

My mom just told that they gave me Promethazine in the psych ward. It was probably that injection that was so brain altering that made me uncapable of crying. It was a damn shane that i got injected with this stuff. I wonder if anyone healed from this?

Me too. Makes me think ppl dont know theor life sucks because of side effecta and belive it is the disease. When I was 14 I was started on an antipsychotic for no reason other than a sadist psychiatrist. Then afterwards I am deppressed and my life sucks i gain weight etc you know the works. Because I now aquired mental health issues my dose is raised and I blame my self. Was in this haze (risperidone) for two whole years before I read the side effects online(I had all of them). I never saw her again. Obviously disnt tell her the side effects this whole time bc I was under the impression the "depression " was a mental illness i had, not the fact that my dopamine is litterally being blocked. Now I know. They still force them ok me though.

I really hope more recovered/recovering people start posting here again because this place is becoming a little scary with just newly injected people freaking out. Although that does go to show that most people probably do recover or start recovering after the first year, they just don’t post about it
