I have got progressively worse for the past four years and my doctor won't let me try something else. I'm going to have to refuse it soon becaause it is driving me insane.

Thank the Lord I got off this medication, it proved to be a fire too great for me. Not only that, but I became a porn addict and still struggle because of the loss of pleasure, I would not recommend this to anyone. | M | 20 | 6 months 75-100 1X M | 3/6/2015 | 2 | Autism/Mania | Caused dysphagia; dysarthria; acute paralysis of the arms; severe nasopharyngitis; dystonic like coughing; and mild depression.

Have been taking it for 1 year (before that, one year of Risperdal Consta), have to take it for another 3 years, I feel so normal (and not down anymore) that I am afraid to stop it...

Sustenna replaced my Consta Shots. | I only have to take one shot a month. Thats equivalent to 30 or more pills a month. There talking about delivering the medicince through an inhaler. I don't think it's in testing for Sustenna, but I read articles about Consta being distributed through inhaling the medicine versus injecting into your arm. The side effects are not fun for the medicine and I hope to not take it much longer. After taking this medicine, there sometimes feels like there is no alternative. The injections are sometimes sacry, but i'm use to them from being on Consta. I some times feel desperate and alone because this drug takes away all your feel good emotions. | F | 27 | 6 months 117mg 1X M | 8/23/2011 | 3 | schizophrenia | tired, less energy, elevated prolactin, weight gain, depression. Injected into shoulder. | Updated version of Risperdal Consta bi weekly. Sustenna only has to be taken every month vs two weeks for Consta. Been on both. Like Sustenna a lot better, because of less injections. It made Consta obsolete to me. | M | 31 | 4 months 117mg 1X M | 7/3/2011 | 1 | Forced meds | HELL ON EARTH | doom doom doom.....pure hell....nothing but hell on this stuff | M | 22 | 4 months ALot 1X day | 3/30/2011 | 1 | Schizophrenia | down depressed tired weight gain headachs really bad chest pain abnormal thoughts well more like weird thoughts on how to act weird/ect... super anger and over 60+ other side effects same as when i was on haldol, the side effects are still there but not as bad | I am on invega now and have been since the start of November 2010, before that i was on haldol since feb 2007 and, my weight went from 189 to 150ish to 250-260 pounds in months from 189 to 150ish over night since they were starving me in the psychward and i herd from one of my friends that the dr that prescribed me the haldol was "the haldol king" anyways the made up bs about me having deliusions about eating healthy (which from my studies i had learned that tap water and spring/ground water has over 75,000 chemicals in it and crap food has thousands of chemicals in it and animal products have bovine growth hormones and antibiotics/ect... and that drugs were toxic i used the word poisonous/toxic, since i they are they made me gain over 100 pounds went from 160 pounds to 270 pounds while i was at a state hospital and the bad food, and it was not untill i learned how to eat healthy and that the bad food and meds made me fat, and i went from 270 to 140 in 3 months with no loose skin check out how fat i was then how skinny i became in 3 months http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xd3KnkypjFE that is my youtube channel and i am on a commitment to be forced the "dope" anyways the 2 points was trying to make was i was force to take drugs and that bad food and drugs all have side effects and now i am hoping i can convince the dr to take me off of the drugs, mr case manger says i have been doing better since i got off the haldol and on the invega, i think so too i a | M | 22 | 3 months 156 1X M | 12/27/2010 | 2 | Manic Depression | Decreased sexual function, extreme dizzines when doing anaerobic exercise.
