It took me about 1-2 years off Invega/Xeplion (off any treatment actually) to think straight and clear again, like before… It does cause brain damage, if you take antipsychotics for years. I only took Invega for 6-9 months and been on pills for about 3 months before it. Antipsychotics should be taken only until it helps you get rid of your symptoms. If you continue to take it years after that it will cause brain damage. (it will shrink your brain).
My brain has fully recovered… but that’s because I haven’t been on any antipsychotics in 9 years… but like I mentioned before, it leaved me with a nasty hormonal imbalance… Although I looked physically healthy (cause I was working out for hours every day) I wasn’t healthy due to the hormonal imbalance…
Luckily, hormonal imbalance can be fixed…
