Coming off Invega/Xeplion (paliperidone) injections v11

[twinpeaks123]

I can see/ feel an understanding of the slow progression that’s been happening to me over this time. I also didn’t have it as bad as a lot of other people, the only things that I really had was cognitive dulling, restlessness, and physical health impairment, and lastly weight gain. Everything else has been minute enough to the point I could overcome it for the most part.

I’ve gained 70 pounds, lost my job, gained a concussion and many more things because of psychosis and Invega. But regardless of how much I may all I can do is wait at this time. it

do you have anhedonia?

do you have anhedonia?

No, things may be less pleasurable than before. But I still feel pleasure/ interest in doing things. As soon as I got out the psychiatric ward I tuned into some anime

Don't say that. People have healed before and you found a doctor that supports you and want to help you

But what can this doctor do to help me/us?

The doctor mentioned dopamine agonists. They can also give you stimulants. I'm sure once the pet shows the damage,they'll figure something out

What if the PET won’t show anything?

It's a brain scan. It will

I also saw a post of someone doing a scan of his brain to check for damages from antipsychotics

So you think that since i never felt myself again after these injections there is some reasons for that into the brain and the PET will show what it’s going on?

 

[Deleted member 592205]

The doctor from the psych ward proposed me to do Functional FMRI and PET to know what happened to the brain

how long did it take for you to recover and did you have improvements at 6 months?

I wish I knew exactly. I was so busy working and going to school. A few months id say. The restlessness was the worst which was why I stopped the injections. At six months I felt pretty much normal tbh
