 1  Bipolar 1 Disorder weight gain, acne, loss of emotion, inability to communicate with others, complete personality change, suicidal thoughts, memory problems, Avoid this medication at all costs. This medication ruined my life. It has an EXTREMELY long half life so this medication will stay in your system for 250-300 days after you stop taking the medication. I used to be an active, happy, socialable person. Invega turned me into a zombie. My friends and family asked me why I never smile, talked, or laugh anymore. I’ve never had suicidal thoughts as the ones I had while on this medicine. Every minute of the day I was thinking about why and how I should end my life. This drug should be made illegal. Don’t let any doctor put you on this poison. F 25 2 months

 1  Forced on my son by psychiatry and Invega Sustenna was given to my son 2 days apart, 234 mg and 156 mg. He lost all bladder function and had to wear a catheter for 6 weeks while it washed out. The Invega pills he was put on after the Sustenna washed out of his body causes horrific anxiety, worsens his fixed delusions and hallucinations. It’s a horrible drug. Is being forced to take it.

 1  Lying Psychiatrists Misdiagnosis Anhedonia, Satanic spells, severe weight gain of 60 pounds in 3 months so far, insomnia, nausea, depersonalization, lost soul, severe hunger and demonic possession can also occur. This medication, as well as the others, are created without much testing at all and are the biggest money makers that Big Pharma has. All you ever have to do to control mental illness is to take megadoses of Vitamins D3, B Complex a good multi and 2 tablespoons of some olive or grapeseed oil. That is what enabled me to get off of this crap and all the other crap. Otherwise, you will be Satanic slave whores to Big Pharma forever. M 52 1 days

 1  Court Order 400mg x 2 mos, 117mg x 10 mos. It is mostly used by the state to oppress you for aggressive behavior or the FBI thinks your a gangster or something. They will falsify records, statements and treatments to come to this conclusion if you piss a cop off. Has real and permanent side effects, including permanent weight gain and essentially a chemical lobotomy, day dreaminess, permanent sensations of unreality and disassociation with reality, and permanent loss of motivation. Probably consider the cheaper option to jail... better to be sent to jail than CO'd.

 1  Wrongful Court Order 400mgx 2mos, + 117mg x 10months. - It is a chemical lobotomy..... Was wrongfully court ordered. It has been 4 years since and I still can't recover. Can't lose the weight. Can't find happiness, no sex drive, no ability to have the sensation that "something is going to be worth it anymore" - I sit blankly at my laptop now instead of turning in job resumes or going to the gym. In that sense I use to do things because it was interesting enjoyable pleasurable or meaningful etc. - Loss of motivation for everything. Don't think clearly anymore, and haven't since being wrongfully treated. Constant day dreaminess sensation - lightheadedness now. Multiple doctors told me I didn't have schizophrenia when I was in the unit and they Court Ordered me anyways. I am considering filing charges against the state. I didn't hear voices before I got CO'd. Now, I hear echos of voices of what people are supposed to be thinking, in that sense of knowing what people are thinking now I hear it instea Permanent lack of pleasure, lack of happiness, sense of disassociation with reality with periods of intense reality. Permanent weight gain and loss of motivation. Loss of motivation for all things. Got a fairly difficult college degree before being CO'd, went back to school to see what happened and struggled very hard to pass - obvious loss of cognitive function from the medication, in addition to inability to lose the weight and loss of motivation in general. Tore both of my knees trying to lose the weight the meds put on, and am unable. Was a fairly active gym goer before, 182lbs and 11% body fat, now am 220-230 constant and 50% body fat. Don't have motivation to go anymore... Constantly unhappy, angry, irritable, drift in and out of reality, disassociation, and paranoia with interactions with people. Trouble sleeping now, severe trouble sleeping .... still ongoing 4 years later. M 32 1 years

I cant get hard, I dont fell any arousal. The pleasure was taken from me in all forms, sex, food, drinks, cigar nothing works for me not even the meds, now I have to take extremely high doses to have a significant effect. I cant get drunk, food has no taste. It has been 2 years since im off the medication and no improvement at all Its pure torture Some authority should do something about this drug it has been destroying lifes for so many years now its impossible jensen doesnt know how bad it is. The responsibles for it must be arrested. The pain they are causing is inhumane. Im so close of suicide now.
