Coming off Invega/Xeplion (paliperidone) injections v11

[Deleted member 592205]

I am not God to state that, but from what i see and read throughout the last 11 months on these long acting injections, i only got bad news.. Have not been able to find answers, ive visited many doctors, and basically my experience with almost all of them was the same that you and many here had, blaming substances and psychological illnesses.

Only one doctor gave a legit reaction stating he is surprised that i can still talk after the amount of doses i received in such a short amount of time. He said he has no help to offer me even if he really wanted to because there isnt any. The only thing he could recommend was to fast for a prolonged amount of time and see how the body and brain reacts to that.

Idk i read some users who stated they recovered after 12-18-24 months. I asked ChatGPT the same thing and he told me the same thing, 12-24 months.

Someone said 1 year, someone said 1.5 - 2 years, someone said 2-3 years, someone said up to 4 years, i only find 1 or 2 users in this whole 15 months that stated they not recovered after years (5-8).

My question is: If the rule is not recovering, where are all these people (lots of peole) who got injected before us? From what I see people don’t complain anymore after 2 years.

I think if someone don’t recover after 2 years or make suicide or keep complaining, and I don’t think everybody who got injected committed suicide.

Maybe i’am the first who will cross the 18 months and 24 months Line in this thread, and I will keep updating until that day, and i won’t lie about anything because i’am so strongly aware of what i was before these injections and what i’am now, so if one day i will claim i’am recovered or i start recovering you can trust me.

Yeah, just think about that:

Where are all those peole who got injected before us? If the damage is permanent we should have people complaining about not recovering after 3-4-5-6 years, so, where all these people are?

They all committed suicide? I don’t think, if more than 50% of people Who got injected committed suicide there should be a scandal about this drug, even if I Will suicide for example, everybody will know that these injections is the cause.

I don’t think everybody who got injected got permanent damage and suicide, I don’t even think that people can live a life with these sympthoms, so, were are they?!??

It’s obviously they have recovered, because these people who got injected before us have a family, sisters, brothers, friends, if every of them just got permanent damage they family and surround people will complain, if they all committed suicide is the same thing.

They cannot hide the fact everybody who got injected committed suicide after 2 years, they cannot hide everybody Who got injected developed permanent damage, you can hide some of them but not all of them.


Right?

Most people injected with Invega end up recovering as stated in the Invega Documentary(77-80%). There’s been multiple suicides on this site although, granted we can’t “prove” they occured aside from the fact an active member proclaims they’ll suicide and subsequently never logs back in or interacts with the site. The latest installment of this being @brokenself

There are people who never recover and end up just continuing on in life. There are some people who physically recover but don’t mentally recover, and they continue living life; and there are some who don’t recover either but continue on to live. But yes, most people do end up recovering, some partially recover enough to feel like is worth living once again, and others don’t recover but find it within themselves to continue living for whatever reason but they get tired of complaining about the same things on the site and end up not logging back in.

After 24 months without recovery then it mean permanent damage, right?

 

[Deleted member 592205]

Idk what to think honestly i’am 15 months past my last injection and i still have a lots of severe sympthoms and idk what to think and what to do honestly

There’s been one case of where one guy ended up recovering after many years. Aside from that I don’t know many other cases of people recovering after many months with no symptoms resolving

I don’t blame you. We’re all extremely ignorant test subjects that have no idea of the complexity going on within our bodies in general, it’s wishful thinking to believe we could understand the complexity of how Invega effects our bodies.

Most of us hardly understand our bodies in the first place

It’s ok, don’t even matter at this point, i Lost the girl i loved and wanted to grow with, long time ago, i lost all my dreams and wasted all my skills and i ended up in this nonsense thing for no reason at all and no-one even blinked about what happened to me.

Even if my life is ruined, and i have to suicide, nobody will miss me or cry about my loss, and that’s ok, this is because there was never enough Space for me to fit in this world.

I was just an innocent child, with passions, dreams, expectations, wishes.. But there was not Space for me and I ended up alone in this thing..

My fate is cursed and my life is over, but I don’t even have the balls to kill myself. I’am a joke and these injections ended me.

Idk if there is more to add about, i think at this point i start to see what is my case and i Just have to stop complaining about because no-one care about.

I just think that innocent child with a genuine smile, and his eyes were full of life and joy, and now i look mysel at the mirror knowing this is my end and nobody care about.

I went to a football game about a month ago, I realized if I committed suicide nobody would really care for the most part. We’d have a quickly arranged funeral where people would tell mundane, unforgettable stories about me and everyone would be forced to move on.

I too fear the fact of the reality that I didn’t matter much in this lifetime and now that I’m on these injections my capacity to change that state of nature has decreased exponentially. I hear and understand what you’re saying.

I started my weight loss journey recently. My theory is that if the invega depot is somewhere in muscle or fat, me dramatically losing weight while intentionally not exercising the deltoid muscles may cause the depot to go away. Not sure if this has been attempted before.

 

[lukeflowz]

I got told to be more mindful. Fucking bullshit. That doesn’t do anything for akathisia. I think they think it’s all in our head.

Sadly this is true. What’s scary is that I’ve had six injections- this could translate to having a long time dealing with akathisia. I hope not, I don’t know how I’ll hold up.

I’m off injections now. My doc agreed to let me do CBT instead. It’s a nice feeling knowing my recovery process has started. 24 days so far. Can’t wait to feel normal again and live life. Hoping to see some improvements in 3 months considering it’s abilify.

I also can feel caffeine again, seems to be straight after the injections it was blocked fully.

I dont know if i asked you this before but did you recover 100% in your last recovery in 9 months from 2 injections? Btw what is your age?

 

[anonymoususer777]

I have the same issue. No sensitivity or healthy level of horniness. My blood level is 1 ng/mL and so I shouldn’t be feeling this way anymore. I’m ready to give up.

Is there improvement in libido from before though?

The injection spreads throughout your entire body. Not working out your deltoids will not increase the speed of your recovery. By any explanation, working out your deltoids could be more beneficial for speeding up your recovery, since it’s the entry point.

But generally yes, being healthy and exercise will make Invega go away quicker than opposed to not working out and being healthy

No it’s numb

No sexual stimulation from anything at all?

It took me about about 6 months to lose the weight i gained from invega and abilify. But when i started losing it i lost it quick and i waset even really trying to lose weght. I was stll drinking alot of soda and eating alot of carbs.

It took me about 3 months off the abilify injections to get my sex drive back. It came back fully after about 5 months. I had been on invega for 3 months and abilify for about 18 months.

How long after invega did your sex drive and sexual function came back?
