Mental Health Coming off Invega/Xeplion (paliperidone) injections v 8.0

People come back from psych med induced anorgasmia all the time. Given enough distance between your last dose of this med and you will be fine.
The problem is my prolactin levels are so high. Have to get this brain treatment to get the levels regulated. Man i'm so fucking pissed off at this doctor. I am really fucking pissed. Everyday I get more and enraged. But main focus right now is getting treatment. That's all I care about.

Sounds like you are making progress, just keep at it, things will improve for you.
 
Window is over, I lost most of my erogenous sensation, quality of clitoral erection and orgasm went down. I tried a single 150mg Wellbutrin because I still had some, and I think that was a really bad idea. I hope this isn't a permanent crash. Emotions are still back though. At least I know Wellbutrin isn't an option for
 
How blank was your mind initially? How did the recovery of your intelligence happen?
I don't really know, it just sort of faded back in and my inner monologue became more active. I didn't have a completely blank mind ever, but I did have weeks where I did nothing but panic and beat myself up, especially when I was afraid something was wrong with my pituitary gland.

Orgasms are the same again, I think I crashed from the Wellbutrin but it might be temporary.

I had a colonoscopy today because I have ulcerative colitis and I have to do it every year. I don't feel all that different from the last times I had one, I was afraid the anesthesia would fuck me up somehow.

I don't really get angry anymore but my parents are always pissed off at something, it's really annoying. By "my emotions are still back" I meant I can still feel emotions to a degree.

Have you got a treatment plan yet? Any idea what they’re gonna do?
 
Erogenous sensation came back again, I'd say it's at 25%. This is the most sensation I had in my clit since invega, not counting the time I got really high during the time I was on Prozac, but forgot to take it one day. I now know I can't fix my PSSD with Wellbutrin since I reacted with a drop in sensation and other symptoms. I hope all I need is time to get over it.
 
I hate crying in the morning. Looking at my children knowing that i'm not the person that I used to be and that i'm living in this torment. Have two last forms of treatment that hopefully are gonna help me.One is a very large clinic and the other is a group of world renowned doctors. I am so furious to what this doctor did to me. This piece of shit . While i'm suffering they're continuing destroying people. I'm just gonna continue trying to get better that's all I can do. But man i'm pissed off. There's nothing I could do except to get better. I did talk to a psychiatrist last night. That said I can get my pro lactin levels dropped if treated properly. I shouldn't have to go through this.
 
I think the disassociation is finally over for real this time. I almost felt like myself today, I felt more empathy and almost felt happy. I cried less. I did drink a third of a liter of coke zero so maybe the caffeine has something to do with that.

I opened up my art program and set up for a drawing idea I've had for a while, didn't really draw yet though, just colored/textured a background.

PSSD- I've had a tiny amount of erogenous sensation this week again, it feels like my last window except it's on my whole clit, not just one spot. :) It keeps wavering, however. I impulsively tried a Wellbutrin I still had from a failed trial for new ADHD meds thinking it could somehow give me a boost, and I'm scared that messed me up a little. I have resolved to not experiment and let time and my brain do its thing.

Update: I got really mad over something dumb, totally in character for old me.
Coke zero doesnt have caffeine.
 
Guys idk if this is normal or weird but when I was normal I was getting morning wood everyday as I am in my 20s. It came back a few times this week but the past 2 days nothing. Anybody else experience it on and off

Mine has been on and off as well , how many days since your last injection ? Your proloactin levels are probably still effected
 
Guys , can we all agree this is the toughest thing we’ve all been through. I hope you allow yourself some grace.
 
I’m on day 191, 174 days until the one year mark and I am holding on for dear life . Idk why this happened to all of us but I just wanted to send you guys some unconditional love and just know you’re not alone in this battle.
 
The truth is , this forum seems to be made up of about 10-15 people at this point and if you don’t your research on Reddit it’s honestly the same sample size of people with seriously long term struggles. I think there is hope for most of us in the long run.
 
I’m scared man really scared … I’m in hell … it’s been over 11 months since my last shot and I haven’t recovered at all … feel doomed
