Coming off Invega/Xeplion (paliperidone) injections v11

[anonymoususer777]

Hey guys been a while since I posted. First off, take a big deep breath and sigh. Its gonna be okay. I promise you. I was just like you, and I recovered for the most part. Not 100% but Im not in that same torment you guys currently are. That will go away. You will feel alive again. Took me about 8 months, which is what a lot have people said on here it would. I want you to know you are heard, i want you to know that you matter. I want to thank you for speaking up. These messages from all of us will change the world some day. But your life is coming back. But now you have to push yourself and i know its hard because you have no will power. Go outside, be with friends even if its hard to think of things to say. Be honest with people tell them what you are going through and thank them for being there for you and with you. Exercise and stimulate your mind. Tell yourself every day this is just a storm that will pass. Its a long journey, but there is light at the end of the tunnel. Im a male, i will say my libido and sex drive and function never fully returned. But its okay. You can still have a sex life with somebody understanding though it may require more effort. But its also nice to see the world from a view that is more accurate. To be awakened. There are a lot of people suffering in this world. You were chosen. You were led down this path to understand that this world is a place of suffering and despair. This may be your first glimpse into the darkness. A lot are suffering more than us. When your mind heals, go forwarth unto the world with a new heart and shine light for others. Be the helping hand for those who have no hand reaching down to them in their darkness. This world is cruel but turn your anger away from the doctors, the hospitals, the pharmaceutical companies. Help those who suffer they need your attention the most. Thank you all for reading. God is Love.

HOw long has been since your last injection? How old are you? And is your sexual function slowly improving?

There are a lot of people suffering in this world. You were chosen. You were led down this path to understand that this world is a place of suffering and despair. This may be your first glimpse into the darkness.

In my experience, people that think and talk like this guy are the fakest, most judgmental and least understanding people. Believing "you were chosen" etc, is how you ended up getting injected in the first place. That's delusional. I also don't understand this glorification of suffering, I find it sick to think that way

A lot are suffering more than us.

Tell that to Bojana Janković, Wail Ardab, brokenself, nybryx edrudd etc. Speak for yourself. Very condescending. And why make it a competition, suffering is bad period?

This world is cruel but turn your anger away from the doctors, the hospitals, the pharmaceutical companies.

If someone else had a different experience and did not get better, people like this guy want to invalidate you and bulldoze over your experience, claim it's your fault you did not heal/you didn't "try hard enough". That you're just a "negative person", when it's physical brain tissue damage

I am glad for everyone that gets better, and people need hope. Probably most do heal and move on with their lives. But different people are different and for the ones that don't get better, it's not their fault and it's normal to be bitter. This drug is not commonly given out compared to other psych drugs like benzos but for the number of people being harmed by it, it's a ridiculous ratio. This is a medical scandal

@paranoid android and @Invegatorture, did you suffer sexual dysfunction during invega and did you regain sexual function back?

 

[paranoid android]

@paranoid android and @Invegatorture, did you suffer sexual dysfunction during invega and did you regain sexual function back?

Yup didnt get a erection for about 2 years because of invega and abilify. And yup regained it back about 110%

Just talked to my psychiatrist, she said 3 months is about the time it takes for this medicine to leave your body. I informed her of the Invega documentary, she said 150 was too smalll of a sample size. My parent was there to hear it all, so I may have some difficulties informing her for future reference about the issues of this medication. Thankfully the psychiatrist advised her to never put me on a LAI again just in case if(when from her pov) ended up in the hospital

 

[Invegatorture]

@paranoid android and @Invegatorture, did you suffer sexual dysfunction during invega and did you regain sexual function back?

I could get erections, but i felt zero sexual pleasure and low semen volume. It all healed

I just want to feel relaxed and comfortable again. It’s so cruel what they’ve done to us. I can’t even cry

Hey did substances like caffeine/nicotine/stimulants or weed stop working for you after Invega? After how many months did they start working again?

There's still hope for things that haven't fully come back yet too, lots of people take two years or a little more, especially for sexual function. It's taking me foreeeevveerr to recover sexually but I'm not worried because it's always getting better. I'm almost better now, but the main problem is a lack of sensitivity and lower than normal libido. I don't think sex would be pleasurable but I can feel an orgasm and it feels ok, and I think that's pretty good. Sometimes orgasms feel almost completely normal starting last month. I got PSSD on top of invega though, and that's why it's taken so long for me.

I've been though hell, I deserve to be able to have sex.

Hey man you have every right to attack my character and post. It is a free country. For what reason, Im not sure. I came here to bring positive vibes. You may be areligious and even a nihilist. But I choose to see meaning in life and spread positivity. People here have found my post helpful.

Are you paralyzed? Do you have all your arms and legs? Are you deaf, dumb, and blind? Are you digging your own grave and being buried alive over in Sudan? Were you in Russia during communism and people had to eat their own dead children to survive? Its hard to imagine but yes people can suffer even more in many more ways you have never thought of.

Im mot sure how you got glorification out of suffering by me encouraging people to help others who are suffering.

I understand you are hurting. But attacking me, I really dont see what that accomplishes.

Would you have prefered me not come back here with a success story?

Do you have anything nice or uplifting to say to us?

There is always somebody no matter where you go who has a problem with anything or everything. Never fails. Smh

And absolutely not have i or nor will i invalidate anybodys claim of not recovering. Im very well educated on this issue I spent every day researching it. But if you guys keep putting up horror stories of the people who dont recover you scare the F out of everybody new here of whom most are perfectly capabale of recovering. And it is very true that if you sit around and think all day everyday "ill never get better" then you absolutely will not. Do you know how i know this? I lived it. If you are so educated on the matter and have read my posts you would have seen that i talked about it is damaged neural reward pathways. What you have to stimulate is neurogenesis. Ive listed supplements to assist this for people who havent recovered yet to look into. Your bitterness is toxic man.

I feel you. Yeah its just not the same for me anymore. I miss it yeah but what can I do about it.

Hey did substances like caffeine/nicotine/stimulants or weed stop working for you after Invega? After how many months did they start working again?

They all worked in the sense that caffeine would make me more alert and beer more sleepy but yeah werent as pleasurable if thats what you mean. Id say at about 4 months i had a really great window huge i thought i was better. I got drunk and was manically happy i wanted to go paint the town. But it went away after that and didnt come back until about 6 months. And by 8 months i was more so better. But yeah during my windows id have goosebumps and chills from smoking and drinking from the dopamine.

Why do I have to have something positive to say?

You made your account yesterday so I don't even know how credible you are, but I'm sorry maybe that was unfair of me. You reminded me of someone else from this forum who is extremely religious (muslim) and a terrible person.
It was not our destiny/fate to get poisoned by Invega Sustenna, neither was it someone's destiny to cannibalize their child during a famine and the rest of what you said. You forgot the rape of Nanking and many other atrocities.
But I actually think that people are hardwired to move on from psychological trauma. Including losing their loved ones. The problem is when it's your own self, losing your own life/self is not something you can get over. That's why I think brain damage actually is the worst thing that can happen to an individual. You're stuck in this state, in between life and death until you do what brokenself did. Obviously this only applies to people with damage and I'm not saying everyone here has permanent damage.

You're basically saying that we are all so privileged but for any of us to get psych drug injections and wind up here, things in our lives had to be pretty bad.

Ive had another account that is dontjump without the period. I forgot my password to the recovery email so made a new one.

Hey man its cool, I accept your apology and Ill say Im sorry i came off to you as disingenuis.

Haha I know exactly who you are talking about and me and him got into to it too. He kept trying to say its impossible to recover and would acuse people of lying on their success stories. Oddly enough i thought you were gonna be like him haha! I hope he is doing better.

None of us deserved this brother. It is not my intention to say that. The way Ive reasoned this is that in a way it is my fate because it has happened and I cant go back and change it. But what it has done for me is open my eyes to just how bad people can possibly suffer. Yes like the people you mentioned. Horrible story of the indian or paki guy.

but i got caught up in my anger and hatred of those that forced this upon me and my victimhood. It engulfed me i thought my life was ruined forever. And this was counterproductive. When i forgot about my condition i improved more.

When i look at the world this place is hateful, ugly, and full of just despair. Not the people in it, but the system. The people who did this to us did not wish to harm us. They will never want to believe they did and thats the problem.

Many people recover and once they grow wings they fly far away from here and never come back.

I came back here to post the post i was so desperately needing to read when i first came on. And that was my intention my friend.

I am 100% for educating the world on the dangers of these medications. But if you come from an angle of attack you will always get a strong defense. The castle will be fortified and the drawbridge up and arrows facing through the battlement pointing back at you. To change the world you have to go through the front door bringing gifts. These gifts are knowledge, stories, and studies. Doctors want to improve the world. All we can do is make the world aware of our condition show people the harm, show people the studies and ask for help. Imagine a charity commercial comes on that acuses you of being greedy and selfish while people go hungry. You will get defensive and lose the message and not donate a cent. The same applies here. Showing somebody suffering and showing why and how they can help is the best results you can get. People either have empathy or they dont. But people can lose empathy the moment they are attacked.

 

[dont.jump]

If you attack the doctors, the hospitals, and pharmaceutical companies you will be seen as first "crazy people", and secondly "enemies" to the institution theyve spent their whole adult lives involved in and believing in. People do not help enemies. Would you give your enemy a gun to kill you with? But rebrand as a Nonprofit Organization spreading awareness and education. Make awards and hand them out. Thats how you do it.

If I’m watching a movie or a TV series that has any complicated plot- I find myself confused with what’s happening. This cognitive dulling is hurting me. I find myself spacing out during the movie/tv series thinking about my injections and I think this is partially responsible, but there is a serious cognitive dulling present. Has anyone experienced something similar and this healing as time goes on.

Im also struggling with performing basic tasks such as cleaning the house, doing the gardening and my general motivation to do any of this is exceptionally low. Does motivation to complete these basic tasks come back in the next few months?

So ive experienced the EXACT same thing. I was watching the hobbit series trying to even understand anything at all that was going on. All i could really enjoy was the custumes, scene, and special effects like a child. I couldnt for the life of me figure out the plot. I rewinded and rewinded and spaced out.

Yes it comes back. Eventually there will be things that you genuinely wanna do. You will never want to do all the boring chores and hygiene habbits. But you will eventually want to do something. But you will realize you have to do tbose things u dont wanna do to do what you wanna do. And then you wont. And then you will. Think of it as waves on the beach in an ocean. Dont get discouraged once you make progress and it goes away. Remember that it will come back. Your job is to take advantage of your windows and stimulate yourself as much as possible. When you feel good stay busy dont rest.

You just have to hang in there. I highly recommend downloading puzzle apps and reading. When you solve a puzzle you will get a small dopamine hit and feel like ok my brain is at least able to do this. This made me feel a lot of relief. Rebuild the pathways.

3 to 4 months is a noticable difference. But you will see blips of dopamine hits before then. Take advantage of these.

Yes. I experienced a lot of cognitive issues. I still have them, but there was definitely an improvement between 3 months and 5 months.

As for motivation, it unfortunately hasn’t improved for me yet, even with basic tasks like cleaning the house.
