My blood test results came back, prolactin level fell to 9.8ug/l, testosterone increased to 15.2 nmol/l. I dont know if it is a sign of invega leaving my body but i sure dont feel any better. Sexual function declined worse than before...waking up more times at night, minor movements produce muscle pain that never go away, run out of breath by merely walking now, energy levels are dead by afternoon.

What was your testosterone last time you checked and how long ago was that?

do you feel the jitterrs or any other effects of adhd medication? I still feel the overstimulation
how many months are you in your recovery from invega?

No, I don’t. I’m 5 months into recovery. A few weeks ago I began seeing early signs of the anhedonia letting up, so I’m hoping at 6 months it’ll start being more effective.

thats light weight. i gained 100 pounds. i am off invega for a while now. you do see some recovery. keep taking st john wort pills because removes invega from the blood much faster. just stay off invega. keep it a year to see some recovery.

Are you fully recovered? What was your dosage and number of injections? Is there any scientific data to prove that st johns wort removes invega from blood?

it took me eight for ninety percent. around ten for full normal. the doctor at the hospital that time took advantage of me and made assumptions based off bullshit. my psychiatrist agrees with me on this so she's had me on vyvanse for a bit now. maybe that has helped my recovery, i'm not so sure.

Was Vyvanse no longer effective for you after the injection, and if so how long did it take to start working again?

Wait,this is another case of someone using vyvanse.,maybe vyvanse might be the answer.

i noticed a major difference even at 20mg, a super low dose. most start at 30mg i think. i felt much more alive and motivated. i'm not on it at the moment but sometimes i wonder if a higher dose would have been my miracle pill. granted, i have ADHD too.

i can't give recommendations since i don't want to be held liable for anything. in my own experience, it was beautiful. it was as if the anhedonia completely faded away.

But it just as effective post-injection as it was pre-injection?

yes, though it felt stronger post-injection. as if my brain craved the dopamine or something. like i said, there was a massive positive change for me.
 
I can’t do a shit than complaining here and walk in circles inside my home talking with myself because I have none to talk about this shit.

Tinnitus prevent me to even lay down and close my eyes, my brain keep working and it’s impossible to fall asleep during daytime and i have insomnia during night..

It’s a miracle i dint became crazy or psychotic for real and it’s a miracle i dint make any suicide attempt but i’am not far away from that at this point.

Today i dint eat at all, first day without eating, i’ll try to starve myself to death.

It can take two years to recover, but some people have also taken 3 or 4 years.

So i maybe have just to wait 2 years and 8 months starting by today (1 year and 4 months) in this agony before recover?

So they shut down me 7 days after my 28yo anniversary and i will wake up 32yo with 4 years of my life missing.. But I have to endure until this time mentally and psychologically without a collapse or a break?

I’am not superman, i’am already at my “enough” phase. I cannot make it until 4 years.. I’am not strong like that.

How long off injections did you notice vyvanse working? Sorry if you already said.

If you enjoyed bo6 i think you will like bo7. I'm having fun with it.

My testosterone was at 4.2 nmol/l but that was checked in the late afternoon but now it is at 15.2 nmol/l checked in the morning 4 months later.

Atleast your test levels went back to normal. I had to go on TRT which i dont mind really as was thinking of hitting the juice anyway
 
The most memorable part of my recovery was how my thoughts would race and become overly engrossed, yet I stopped fixating solely on depressing matters and repeatedly felt hope at any moment.

This was particularly special to me because these symptoms persisted right up until I was prescribed Invega Sustenna.

The pace of recovery is remarkably swift.

I'm cycling through recovery and setbacks at monthly intervals.



However, there's a problem.

My tendency to overthink has shifted to being passive, and my memory has deteriorated significantly.



I just wish these two issues could be resolved.

Isn't it ironic that my memory was best when my dopamine was imbalanced?



Dear God, please help me resolve these two things.



Everyone, is there no way to fix these two things?
