I’m stressed out. I’m seriously considering just ending this, but I want to hold onto hope. I just logically know there is no hope honestly.

I guess I’ll wait til my blood test results come back.
 
What are your symptoms? The shot you got is meant to last for two weeks. And only 100mg total is crazy. I’m sorry
Sleep
• Superficial, non-restorative sleep, with continuous awakenings.
• Impossible to sleep past 6AM.
• Unable to fall asleep during the day.
• Unable to feel tiredness.



Cognition
• Memory problems.
• Problem-solving difficulties.
• Concentration problems.
• Trouble completing one or more tasks without forgetting.



Perception
• Altered integration/perception of time (biological clock)
• Normal state of consciousness altered (sensation of being “high”/“feverish and dazed”).
• Absence of emotions.
• Blunted perception compared to normal.

(Diagram: before risperdal → balanced perception of past, present, future; after risperdal → narrowed perception, reduced presence in the present.)

I’m really sorry.

I’m feeling the same way. I don’t think I’m even going to wait for my blood test results. What is that going to do? It doesn’t matter at this point.

Thanks for the company everyone.
 
Guys.. I just need help i cannot take it anymore, i need immediate help to restore my baseline because i cannot just take it anymore, for me is 14.5 months in 1 week, we all know what happened to brokenself..

I just need help, sorry if i’am atheist, i just need immediate help to recover i endured 14.5 months already pls just help me..
 
I'm not even on this stuff but have a lot of these symptoms, I can relate to having no outlook in life, killing yourself isn't gonna solve anything. You can think about it, but if you do it you lose, you can only win if you keep going.

I’ve already lost. There’s no winning anymore
 
There is always hope, you will never know the outcome if you don't persevere. 14 months shouldn't be a deadline, it's different for everyone, it can take more time than that even for someone to get better. Even if you don't fully recover you'd be me, I'm still alive, it's not fun but it's something.

What do you mean? You got injected with antipsychotics injections and then never fully recovered? I’m assuming you are past 14 months yes?
 
No, I am simply depressed. I have never fully recovered either. Have you gotten out of the house this year? I haven't for 25 years give or take. Life sucks, I go through periods where I'm so depressed I don't get out of bed almost. It happens, I still live.

But you get injected with antipsychotics and you developed lasting sympthoms? Because this thread is made for this type of particular thing, and what do you mean you never recovered? From what?
 
I have lasting symptoms, without being injected with anything.

Why hasn't cabergoline been mentioned yet in this thread? It keeps prolactin levels under control, a big issue with paliperidone.
