You had a Malcolm X picture before the Jimi Hendrix one. I think Malcolm X was one of the greatest speakers of all time.
And one of my favorite songs by Jimi is "All Along the Watchtower." I love his version at the Isle of Wight. I have the Blue Wild Angel DVD, Live at the Isle of Wight. Peace and Love!

I think this is a good time to consider your faith.
If your not believing in GOD is keeping you miserable, then maybe you should try giving GOD a chance.
If your faith in GOD is low, it may be well advisable to pray or seek him more.
Also, one may consider using the names of "angels" as they pray to GOD for healing or miracles.
As you can see with me, I'm not worried about Invega at all. My comments, for the most part, appear to show me as being someone who has fully recovered or who is close to it.

You probably already read what I'm about to say on some website or another, but in some cases PSSD is fixed by two years.
I have observed this, I am aware. I feel like I'm on track for that.

I am worried about starting Metformin. My sister was on it when she was trying to have a baby (big success there, I adore my niece) and she said it reduced her libido the first three months, but it came back as her estrogen and progesterone balanced.

I know I should be on something to protect my fertility as I have PCOS, but I actually like having high testosterone. I like the way it made me look since I'm genderqueer. I think I owe the androgyny in my face and frame to it.
 
Crying very easily and having greater depth of analytical and creative thought/imagination! I feel like I have opinions and I want to share them more. This started changing a while ago.

I feel almost like myself again! I just want my mental quickness, vivid imagination, and horniness back. I want to be able to feel the same even though maybe feeling so much was detrimental. At the same time, it felt like my superpower.
 
Went for a long walk today, thinking about how I might never be the same as I was before Invega. I was forced to take 10 shots of Invega and 3 of Haldol during a psychotic episode. Most people, like crimsonthornx and Invega Anon, only got the initial two loading doses and recovered within a year. But I was hit with shot after shot for 10 months, leaving my brain no time to heal. The brain compensates for blocked dopamine receptors by creating more, but after the invega blockade lifts, there is not be enough dopamine to fill them, leading to things like anhedonia or cognitive issues. I’ve been praying for a return to how I was in 2022, but I haven’t seen any improvement not even 1% per month. It’s depressing, but if you had fewer shots than I did, your chances of recovery are still high.
 
I've observed something. It's like everybody who believed they would recover actually have recovered. And people whose comments show they never gave up hope also recovered. And the hope I speak of is the one closest to faith. I think pretty much everybody has some degree of hope. But people who don't think they will recover, they may and they may not.

Going without water for 2 days is very dangerous as you can die after only 3 days with no water. I dont get where these fasting posts are coming from
Greetings, dear one. The following words are not meant to be offensive. Have a wonderful and blessed day. With that being said, I talked with my Mom on my birthday (August 14th) and she also thought you all were crazy for not understanding the 3 day, 3 night fast without food and drink. (She didn't use the word CRAZY, of course; but gave the indication that the understanding some of you have of the fast being dumb and meaningless is RIDICULOUS.) I'm not saying that to be mean. The thing is, it makes sense: Your head shrinks when you do the fast. Whether or not what I'm about to say is true or possible, it does make sense that the Invega would loosen up from the brain. Whatever the case, I know it worked for me. Whenever I took Invega, I was about 154 pounds. After it, I had gotten down to 150. Then I went to 170, or somewhere in the 170s. When I fasted those three times I went down to around 120-140 pounds. I've since gained weight but you get the point. Fasting 3 days and 3 nights without food and drink does something. And in my "OPINION" it allows the body to have to work and return to homeostasis. It is logical (and of course spiritual) to see that it has some benefits. That it causes the body to in some way reset itself. Will it cause dehydration? According to the detection from darker colored urine, YES. But is the dehydration enough to kill someone? from my own experience and the testimony of others, NO. I like the 3 day, 3 night fast without food and drink because it THINS the body. Drinking water causes WATER weight. Yes, water PURIFIES and cleans out. But no food and drink shrinks the body and things in the body much faster or quicker. I'll say one of the biggest benefits of the 3 day, 3 night fast without food and drink is the HUGE RETURN of EMOTIONS. That's when I really could tell there was some blockage in and around my heart area. That's why I DON'T believe that permanent emotional blunting is POSSIBLE with Invega. It makes sense that since certain receptors have been blocked, the pathway from the brain to the heart, etc., would have caused less activity, thus less heat or energy or electricity, leading to stoppage or clogginess in certain areas.

Peace and Love!

I thought you can only stay 2 days without water? I couldn't imagine that. That sounds dangerous, you could easily fall into psychosis. If you mean alcohol yes, but water no. Water is healthy
This website is concerned about your life, health, and safety. So, certain moderators, such as paranoid android, do not recommend it nor agree to it (I think). And they are, of course, concerned about the legal situation of bluelight, possibly getting in trouble for recommending something of a 2 day or 3 day fast without food and water. And possibly (not to be rude or hurtful) ego could have some say. I'm pretty sure they're above that fast in their minds, but still some machismo or glory (or vainglory) in them may cause them to also be against it. I mean that kindly.

"And he was three days without sight, and neither did eat nor drink" (Acts 9:9).

"Go, gather together all the Jews that are present in Shushan, and fast ye for me, and neither eat nor drink three days, night or day: I also and my maidens will fast likewise; and so will I go in unto the king, which is not according to the law: and if I perish, I perish" (Esther 4:16)

Peace and Love! And God bless you all!

😀😀😀😀❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

P.S. They, which ever of them don't agree to it, may have some insecurity or fear because of the length of the fast, and possibly they may not feel they can do it, although it is possible for them (to do so). They do have the willpower. Truthfully, I would have liked to do 4 days and 4 nights or longer. In a better environment (away from negative people or energies, especially neighbors) I would do a longer fast. Actually I would pray long hours and do many rituals to GOD, to his angels, etc.

You may find consolation and encouragement from the following post:

Serhat: "Dear Bluelight Community,

I wanted to share some wonderful news – I have fully recovered from my anti-pyschotic injections journey. After ten injections, I stand today at 100% recovery. This marks a new chapter in my life, one where I will be moving forward without the need for this forum.

I cannot express enough gratitude for the support and camaraderie ⁰I found here during the toughest of times. Each of you played a pivotal role in my journey, offering encouragement when I needed it most.As I say farewell to the forum, please know that your kindness will always be remembered. My experience here has been nothing short of incredible. Wishing all of you strength and wellness in your own journeys.

Thank you so much, see you all on the other side


Warm regards, Serhat"
 
The book "Make My Life a Bible" by John Taylor is a very good book to read. I have it, but it's at my parents' house. Whenever I go back, I will get it. Or my Mom may bring it to my apartment whenever she comes. It will encourage you all to not give up on GOD, or Jesus, or whatever or whoever you pray to or believe in for healing and miracles.

Invega is a temporary journey, although the memories of it may last a lifetime. John Taylor is a guy who's performed miracles by the power of GOD, and he even amazes those doctors or people who are "no longer believers in religion or scriptures, but believers in so-called science."

I will post messages with quotes from it. Also, I will search other books to help strengthen your faith in GOD and recovery.

Peace and Love! And God bless you all! May the SPIRITUALITY of GOD be with you.

😀😀😀😀❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

You will recover, the human brain and body is a miraculous thing. Just give it time and don't lose hope, I understand that is difficult though.
