I was given three shots without my consent. 15 months ago and I haven’t healed. It’s hell. Everything has been torn apart

Are you on invega sustenna too? If not, than i hope you will heal and recover from this loss. Not to undermine your pain but i went through loss of loved ones before invega and i thought it was the most painful thing until i was given invega sustenna. There is no hell worse than invega sustenna and i know why @rawbanana did it. If you are lucky enough to never have been put on invega or similar drug than you have all the tools available to you for healing i:e exercise, meditation, ,ability to feel caffeine, endorphins, serotonin, and other substances that can help you heal. Invega takes all those things away from you. So if you are lucky enough to never have been on such a drug than value the only life you have. Invega makes you value life even more.

Have you noticed any windows of recovery ? If yes, that couldbe a sign you will improve. What were the doses of your injections? The doses must have been huge to take this long

What are some of the last things to recover?
Is motivation the last thing to recover?
The feeling of endorphins after exercise also seem to recover very late.
Full sexual function recovers late?

UPDATE: FDA acknowledged our Invega Sustenna drug-safety appeal.
On January 14, 2025, my wife Jodi and I sent a formal drug safety warning to then-HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra and then-FDA Commissioner Robert Califf, asking the FDA to take immediate action regarding Invega Sustenna (paliperidone palmitate) and related paliperidone products. The FDA’s Division of Drug Information (CDER) responded and confirmed our letter was forwarded inside CDER for further consideration, with follow-up only if they need more information. 
Why this matters: families deserve real oversight, transparent risk communication, and a system that treats adverse-event reports like the fire alarms they are, not like junk mail.
And to those experiencing negative effects this drug, fans of Rob Reiner, and anyone looking for answers after Nick Reiner: if medication questions are part of the story, the safest path is facts and documentation, not rumors. Preserve timelines, request records through the proper legal channels, and report suspected adverse events through FDA’s reporting pathways (MedWatch). Even one report can become a data point the system can’t ignore.
If you’ve experienced serious side effects, “rebound” episodes, or troubling outcomes tied to long-acting injectable antipsychotics, don’t stay silent. Report it. Document it. Push for accountability.

By the way, rawbanana was one of only a few people that left comments on the U.S. FDA website about Invega Sustenna. Can't see the date on the above letter, but perhaps those few comments put pressure on the FDA to finally respond to the Moyer family. https://www.regulations.gov/document/FDA-2007-D-0369-2225/comment

Thank you for sharing your recovery progress. Do you feel you have to slowly rebuild your old mind back? Did you have a lot of anxiety after smoking? Invega causes lack of motivation and weed sometimes does the same, how did you cope?

WEed helps remove invega from the body as many who have recovered from it said. I would suggest smoking it.

I’ll probably smoke it every now and then but not regularly.
To be honest, when I was high I was actually more motivated to do things I was putting off like cleaning and organising so I managed to get quite a bit of that done.
No anxiety after smoking but I did freak out a little bit in the beginning which stopped and became an enjoyable high once I was relaxed and getting stuff done, used to love getting high and looking up at the stars so I did that and it brought me the same joy it used to, it was nice
 
I’m going to an appointment with my psychiatrist today, I need answers. Four months has passed since my last injection and I feel identical as when I was on my injections. I don’t feel any dopamine hits throughout the day, but I’m still drinking that coffee out of habit to try and wake it up. I’m scared out of my mind that how I’m feeling now is just going to be my new normal. Maybe I’ve already recovered from invega and I’m stuck like this. I hope not, but it seems that way as I’m not noticing any improvements what so ever.

I think the last things to recover could vary per person.
Motivation hasn’t quite fully recovered for me but has got better in the sense that early on I had to really push myself to do even basic tasks like brush teeth but now I just get up and do it.
Endorphins from exercise started to recover around month 4 I think.
Full sexual function around month 6

Don’t let the psych gaslight you into thinking that what you’re experiencing is a condition returning and not the effects of the injection cause that’s what they do. I remember month 3-4 being really tough so just hang in there. This isn’t going to be a new normal, you will recover!! Just need to give it time. You’re not stuck like this and you will get through this, just be aware that the psych might try to dismiss what you’re going through from the injections.

Yup that was before i was instutionalized against my will in 2019 i think it was.

How do you not know what year you were injected?
And if you were here since the first thread in 2013 reading about everyone's experiences on this drug, then why did you agree to get injected in (you think) 2019? If you knew how bad it is?

Because my memory at the time was not great i had full on psychosis and cotards syndrome. But i am pretty sure it was around april of 2019

I didnt really agree to be injected but the injections where better then getting no help for psychosis at all in the psych ward. I was not exactly thinking in there
