I think I am starting to feel better but it’s just hard waiting.

I feel like I’m in a bottle with a cork stopper and the cork won’t budge and I just want the cork to pop so i can feel everything again

Do you have windows where you feel somewhat better? Do you feel better in cold weather?

Yeah maybe it’s the cold weather I don’t know. I don’t think I have windows just gradual changes.

I really didn’t start feeling noticeable changes until month 10. I’m getting my blood tested again next week as it’ll be a month since my last test.

Please do share and drink lots of water. Invega leaves the body through urine.
 
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.

12 x 156 mg*.

Do not listen to that dopamine receptors are permanently blocked. This is a fallacy. While the D2 receptors are blocked by invega, 2 mechanisms happen. 1 is that the receptors are eventually replaced with shiny new ones that are wide open. 2 is your body upregulates them when they they are not receiving the usual dopamine levels. This is why psychosis can happen much more likely coming off without tapering.

the long half life will take like 6 months to get out of your system. The next few months after your receptors become new and unblocked. But its actually much more likely this happens earlier as the therapeutic dose is no longer present 1 - 3 months. So...

the receptors will return BUT its all the connections that have been shut off for so long. The reward pathways. This is why you need to physically and mentally stimulate yourself for neurogenesis. To rebuild the reward pathways that went dormant. If you do not push yourself to RELEARN you will not heal. Like lifting weights. Use it or lose it.

Thanks for your reply.

For those looking to supplement. There are 3 things your body needs to do.

1 is flush out the medicine. You want to take caffeine and anything that makes you pee alot. The caffeine will give u motivation and oddly for me no jitters. Lots of water too for a medium to gwt it out. You want to exercise to burn fat as fat holds onto the medicine. Do jumping jacks to move the intramuscular portion out. There are a few supplements ive researched that help the mind and liver flush these toxins. Help them escape the blood brain barrier. I need to find my list although ive never took them.

2 is you want to stimulate neurogenesis. Lions mane is not good for this condition as it will kill your already low testoerone levels. you will need a different one. Like i said i have a list somewhere. But download brain games, do puzzles, etc. Easy stupid ones if you need to just get a jump start.

3. Is if you are desperately low on dopamine you may want dopamime increasing supplements. But i caution this as it can make your recovery harder. More dopamine = less receptors. (Downregulation) and increasrd risk of relapse.

4. Lastly you need something to counteract the excess prolactin, that is destroying your testosterone, sex drive, and helping you grow breast.

I did not take any supplements but ive done a lot of research and anybody interested i will provide them a list. Ill have to dig though some notes. Your supplements should target at least these things, with special warning to adding dopamime. Disclaimer Not a doctor or health expert. My 2 cents only.

As of now I’m drinking coffee but I think because it’s too early in my recovery—I don’t feel it. Hopefully as the months go on I can feel coffee again, I miss the feeling of caffeine.

You will. Everything is coming back. One day you will be looking at something and it will dawn on you that you are back and you will laugh in delight.
