Well its been 14.5 months for me and when I wake up in the am and hit my vape I can get a nicotine buzz which I wasn’t able to for 14 months as far as a dopamine rush it’s hard to say I still cant feel the effects of caffeine or really get an adrenaline rush yet I have heard of people taking two years to recover it so we will see the only thing that helps is time I was completely bed ridden for 10 months (extreme) with no hope thinking this last forever once you hit a year u should start seeing some light at the end of the tunnel I really believe I would never get any better until about 12 months the anhedonia started to let up which is the worst thing I was dealing with by far I was able to loose the 20 pounds at about 11 months I would say I notice the thing that helps the most is making sure to eat it made it so I was never hungry after a while and now I’m able to become hungry thirsty and also tired I wasn’t able to feel tired for 12 months now my sleep has returned I also can wake up with erections again and be able to enjoy sex (13 months) I’m not sure if anyone ever returns to pre invega but you can come back enough to enjoy life again and get joy out of certain things but I truly believe we should all come together and file a lawsuit as invega clearly causes permanent damage and that first 8-10 months is worse than anything I could possibly imagine I am certain many people have committed suicide from this it puts you in constant suicidal ideation for 8 months but just know it gets better it’s best to explain to whoever your living with you need a year to not be required to do anything that takes any amount or responsibility because it’s nearly impossible you can’t trick your mind when dealing with this it just doesn’t work, you get no dopamine from working out eating healthy vitamins nothing is going to work while invega is still in your blood I believe it is in your system at least a year and I think it takes another year for your receptors to repair themselves the best they can and possibly many years to come back to pre invega hang in there and take it easy make sure to eat and drink as much as possible and try and get the most sleep you can it took a long while before I could sleep for periods longer than an hour at a time

I think peranent recovery is only possible for those who acknowledge the issues that landed them on the shot in the first place, and deal with the underlying condition. If you are in denial, you will most likely get shot up over and over and never recover.

I find it hard to believe that they forced injections cto on a misdiagnosis or even first time hospitalization. Forced injections are only used in severe circumstances and I don’t believe any doctor would prescribe it without a good reason. It’s just common sense, not being pro-doctors or big pharma.

You aren’t doing yourself any favors by saying the doctors are just facists who want to destroy lives. That’s dangerous thinking.

This thread should be about encouraging recovery and sharing experiences not only about invega, but also mental health issues. If you are truly misdiagnosed (you know your own situation best) then you just have to wait for a year or two and make the best out of the circumstances.

I’m sure you will recover from invega, that’s just a matter of time no need to worry.

I worry more about the actual disease than the side effects of the drug. Maybe that’s why I am feeling better.

I’m just trying to be realistic. You want me to believe everybody here is misdiagnosed and that doctors are all crazy? I can’t do that.

No disrespect to the sufferers I know this drug is too harsh and overkill. But there is a reason why they gave it to us. No point in denying that fact

I have no clue what you are talking about nobody claims misdiagnosis neither that doctors are crazy they simply have no clue what they are doing.

You know that they give invega to 8 - 12 year old autistic children they also give it off label to veterans with ptsd

So how do you feel? Were they right to prescribe you antipsychotics? Whether in pills or injection.

No I didn’t know they gave it to kids and veterans. I can only speak from my own experience, nobody else. Something is wrong with the drug industry for sure, but they were not wrong in my case. But I think pills would have been enough the injection is complete overkill.

I dont have a diagnosis i went to the clinic for depression. Im off meds next month
No i didn't need antipsychotics and the psychiatrist agreed i don't need them

Reason i got put on abilify is because i defended myself in a fight.. the judge decided not to persecute so im getting pulled off abilify as well
