Permanent brain damage from antipsychotics?

Hi!

I get you are upset and understand where you are coming from, however mod/forum issues should be dealt with via PM rather than in public. Easier to be heard that way, plus it keeps the thread on topic

Feel free to PM me with any concerns.

Thanks!

Feel extremely bad after taking haldol for 2 weeks and then getting one long lasting shot. Have body twitched, feel very weak, also lost part of my intelligence and all of my emotions. Music now sounds flat to me, that really sucks. Any idea on how long the recovery takes? Any ideas on whether haldol can still be in my body, it's been 2 months and its half-life is 3 weeks.

God that is horrible. I also have been forcibly injected with Haldol, and I had to leave the state to escape the committal. Yes it does leave your system, but it takes many years to recover, and your spirit and outlook will never recover. It turns you into an eternal skeptic and eternally shatters optimism. You probably will never trust authority again, and you'll always be vigilant of your rights and who may be trampling on them. I guess overall, that's a good thing, but that's only if you manage to escape the committal, figure out your mind, and deal with your problems in an alternative manner. Exercise and Yoga are imperative if you are to help yourself without the help of authorities. It takes many years to gain control of your faculties and mind. My body twitched and spasmed for over a year after the last injection of Haliperidol. Prolixin is just as bad. Run to the Hills.

How long were you on it and how quickly did you recover? Has the libido come back? Same questions for emotions, phantasy etc. Do you feel like you used to feel prior to haldol injections?

Well, I'm a quick study, so as soon as I realized how toxic and horrible that poison was I escaped almost immediately. The longest stretch I ever succumbed to was around 4 weeks after forcible deconoate injections. And That of course gave me restless legs, parkinsonian tremors and twitching, a strange phenomena I think termed Akithesia or dystonia where your eyes roll up in the back of your head, drool comes out of your mouth and you become "stuck" unable to move or think. I mean it folks...Haldol is the worst of the worst...total horse shi*. I did recover but it took me over a year, and that's only if you get away from the forced committal. You need to Rambo up and get ready to leave the State. It's not easy, and weaker men succumb and end up lost zombies...rocking back and forth, picking up cigarette butts and smoking them, and tongue wiggling. The moderators of this website are far too timid, and I'm unable to describe fully what I'd do to those fascist bastards who inject people with poison. It wouldn't be pretty. Fight hard. www.mindfreedom.org will give you hope.

Have you recovered emotionally? Did you have anhedonia after stopping the meds? I have that strange feeling when favourite music sounds flat and you I don't get any joy out of doing things like I used to. Did you have that? Also I'm extremely worried about my sexual health, I have very low libido since the injection and a very small amount of ejaculate.

Once I was in a posh drug study hospital in Georgetown Washington DC. After getting into a pissing match with my Jewish doctor, I checked out against medical advice. He threatened he was going to have me picked up by St. Elizabeth's and he didn't lie. While out on the sidewalk, 2 city mental health workers flanked me and put me in the back of their caged vehicle. They took me to the same facility John Hinckley Jr. is currently locked up. It had metal cages, and people were walking around bound in shackles like slaves. Most people were black inner city, and a few were drug casualties. The orderlies were firm and abusive. My "doctor" was this 300 pound black lady, and I had to stand in a long line for an hour waiting to see her. Despite explaining things very calmly and logically, she STILL had me forcibly injected with Haldol and gave me Haldol pills by mouth. Then followed by Risperidol. I lost all my ejaculate when I tried jerking off once in the bathrooms. The showers were like prison, with big burly black dudes watching you. I tried to refuse a shower and the guy threatened me and said matter of fact, that i was getting in that shower one way or the other. I wondered around in a complete daze for about 6 weeks before finally being released. I met some very disturbed and crazy people in there. One guy kept asking me to find him a Catholic Priest. He was so desperate and fast talking. I know in hindsight it was the drugs they were giving him. It was like being a Jew in a Nazi concentration camp. It takes a LONG time and the longer you're under the influence of those drugs, the more permanent damage they do.

Yeah, I know what you're talking about, I've been in myself, the experience is pure horror, worse than prison I guess. The thing is I've been off for two months, and I still feel and experience all those things I did feel while taking the meds in the ward. I'm just scared it's permanent, although for me it was 2 weeks of injections and then 1 haldol deconoate injection (I guess that amounts to another month). Will I get back to my normal self, physically and emotionally? Say, in a year? The amount of ejaculate is so small I'm afraid I won't be able to have kids in the future, plus I feel so #######5 now I don't even think about sex anymore.

IT was the Risperidol that I matched to the loss of ejaculate. As soon as you stop the medications the healing begins. I've always been able to get away from longterm forced drugging, with the longest at about 2 months, so I don't know what it's like if you go years and years. I do know a guy from high school who was a star athlete who had a meth episode and they put him on the forced drugging / schizophrenic plan (rather than just let him detox from the meth) and he never recovered. Today he hobbles around like an old withered man chain smoking Marlboros, rocking back and forth in his rocking chair, sleeping 15 hours a day, and shuffled around in State convalescent nursing homes. The psyche drugs did it to him, I have no doubt in my mind. Psychiatry in America is a corporate inflicted, abusive phenomena which seeks to achieve roughly 5 objectives based on the classification you are placed into. 1. It services middle class to upper class families who can't seem to control their child/ young adult (with the objective to restore the child to Wally/Beaver Cleaver behavior). 2. It seeks to turn rebellious youths and even some adults to Jesus in a medicated Christian conversion (particularly in southern and bible belted states) 3. It seeks to punish and control criminals, homeless people, free thinkers who are deemed out of control and threatening to status quo. 4. It serves to quiet and control severely mentally handicapped and the elderly. 5. It serves as an apparatus for experimentation to further the overall Allopathic medical understanding of the human mind and body as promulgated and advanced by German Nazi Scientists/Doctors.

Learn the correlation between food allergies, toxic crappy food, and your mental state. Learn how to eat minimally to control your impulses. Commune with the sun and nature while you detoxify (I had to sleep out in the wilderness for months to detoxify from those drugs). Use anonymous crisis lines to your advantage (talk out your problems without revealing your identity). Stay out of the clutches of family members who try to commit you. Learn as best you can to become independent...this will mean you may need to leave the state you are being psychiatrically harassed in. Get a menial job cleaning or stocking shelves. Finding a job is considered key to your getting better in the eyes of authorities...so if you can find something which provides you relative isolation while earning some money, your recovery will go so much faster.

IT's hard man, but recovering from a phony schizophrenic diagnosis can be achieved. But you need to be prepared to take control of your body/mind processes and fight and subdue them...and the mind can kick your butt...hard to subdue. But once you finally get control of those wild horses, your liberation and independence from those who would control you will become realized.

Yoga, fasting, Zazen Meditationn, weight lifting, jogging, bike riding, long walks.
