Does anyone know how to cope with severe anhedonia? If I had to give it a number from 1 being the worst possible to 10 feeling the best, it’s like -3. The second I wake up and get out of bed it makes me physically uncomfortable it’s so bad. Any advice?
 
This weekend slightly after the 5 month mark I had more anhedonia go away and some of that anhedonia was attached to the brain burn I was having so that got smaller.

my anhedonia recovered a lot from exercise and sticking to a routine to keep myself on track
 
Does anyone else feel completely drained of energy every single day. I wake up and it feels like I haven’t slept at all.

Can someone please help me find out when your hormones should be normal after invega? My period is a week late, which is a sign of anovulation.

This. Exercise and routine are critical. Even if I'm tired beyond belief, if I exercise, I always feel good after and grateful towards myself for making the effort. Takes a lot of discipline to recover. Gotta have it. Looking forward to the day when life is a good and wholesome thing again.
 
I don’t believe it’s just time and exercise that gets you better. Everyone who recovered seems to brush it off like it was hell for a few months then they got better after a year or something. There’s a lot of info missing, like were you severely depressed during that time or not? I never felt that everything in life was pointless until I received this injection, even if I got better i think I’d still feel this way. I don’t believe in God anymore. It‘s robbed me of everything - Janssen Pharmaceuticals and the Hospital are absolute scum.
 
I don’t want to ruin everyone’s hopes but the only other person I’ve seen online that had almost the exact same complaints as me was someone on Reddit called queasychemistry or something like that. Their last post was a suicide note 6 months ago. I really hope they didn’t as I’d love to know if it got better for them.

It absolutely does feel permanent while you're experiencing it, but please remember that it isn't. In a few months you'll feel different, and after a year you'll most likely be completely back to normal.

I was 14 months off injections in my last recovery and the anhedonia was still there.

Another side effect I have is that I'm drinking a lot of water and I'm barely need to go to the bathroom, and when I do, I'm barely peeing.
Do anyone else suffering from the same thing?
I'm worried about my health
