I had my last shot a week ago. But we are in this together. You are just one month ahead of me. I think in the beginning it's the worst. When I received my first few shots I had like a hole in my head the same as you. These were your first and last doses, for the body usually needs to adapt to these that's probably why it feels awful. It should get better month by month

Why were you injected?
 
They said Bipolar 1. I was refusing risperdal because i got nids from seroquel. Funny thing is risperdal and invega arent approved for bipolar
 
oh and in feburary i tapered seroquel to quickly and they upped my dose from 50 to 225 and then back down to 125 all in the span of 2 weeks. fried my brain
 
I actually needed meds in the psych ward but for the first 3 months i was given nothing. It was only after i lost it and my brother got me a new shrink that i was actually put on invega. As much as invega sucks its still 100 times better then psychosis or cotards syndrome

I had it for 3 months in the psych ward because they refused to give me meds. The shrink in there fucking hated me and said i belonged in jail. So ya i thought i was dead for about 3 months. Fuck that shit thats why im never stopping taking zyprexa.

Speaking of psychedelics shrooms has really helped my fear of insanity. Now i dont worry about going crazy again ever since i tripped balls

I'm glad zyprexa helps you. It's crazy to me how these meds can help some people and absolutely cripple others.

@paranoid android are you fully recovered or you just telling this to yourself?

No i am more then fully recovered if anything. I really cant complain about anything right now. I am in the best shape of my life (just got done with arm day actually) and can lift way more then when i was a 20 year old laying bricks. As a plus i also found a awesome treatment for my acne which is just desoloratadine a non drowsy antihistamine. So now for once in the summer time i can actually walk around with my shirt off as i dont have loads of acne on my back and shoulders. That combined with the fact that im actually in shape now gives me a good confidence boost.

My sex drive has come back 120%. I feel like a teenager again. My attention span has also come back which was the last thing to come back. That took a year to come back i couldnt read at all when i was on invega and abilify.

I can also get high off drugs the same as before i started on antipsychotics. Weed, benzos, zopiclone, morphine and shrooms all work fine for me. I havent tried coke since i started on zyprexa but i dont really miss that to much anyway. I may be trying amphetamines son so i will report back and tell you if they work or not. I dont see why they wouldnt. I am not actually addicted to any of my meds anymore though which is fucking great. I dont miss waking up sick from opiate wd fuck that shit.

I dont see why some people think you cant recover from this shit. My friend also takes zyprexa for cotards syndrome (shes one of the very few people besides me thats had that) and like me gets no side effects. Shes started working out as well and has already gotten alot of gains. So yes you can recover.

When you were on Invega did you feel like you had lost your mind? Like severely blank? Did you lose your hunger signals? Sorry for all the Invega questions I'm sure its annoying but its all i have on my mind atm.

Well i had lost my mind as i had cotards syndrome and psychosis. I really dont remember much about having either as my mind blanked the fuck out altogether. I was also cold turkeying off 150mg's of morphine a day and 6mg's of clonazepam a day as well so that didnt help my memory any either. The cunts in there would not give me any meds not even loperamide.

My mind did feel very blank when i was coming out of the psychosis because i couldnt remember over 3 months of my life. I didnt lose my hunger if anything the invega made me pretty hungry. That combined with the really shitty carbs in the psych ward is why i got fat as fuck in there

Dont worry about asking questions ask away
 
I can feel my libido coming back a little. Sensation is still poor, but also better. Masturbating with a vibrator has become pleasurable again. I feel like I'm going to beat PSSD.

I cried when me and my sister talked about our dead friend. It's been a year without her now, I miss her.

so sorry for your loss. Its good you have the ability to cry. Some of us including me have fully lost our emotions and I even went to two funerals since being injected and showed 0 emotion
