For Schizophrenia "I took risperidone in 2001 and had weight gain and sexual dysfunction. I changed to olanzapine, and I was able to finish my college degree in engineering. The doctor changed me to aripiprazole, but it did not work for me. For about 10 years, I have been taking Invega. I feel good, and my head is clear. I am able to maintain a healthy weight that is managed with physical activity. I have no sexual dysfunction, but I lack motivation and feel flat."

For Schizoaffective Disorder "This shot will turn you into a zombie. The only thing it helps with is delusions and paranoia, but you better be ready to be a couch potato with no pleasure, no motivation, and no sex drive."

For Schizoaffective Disorder "I've been on Invega Sustenna 117 mg for many years and it totally got rid of all my symptoms of schizoaffective disorder-bipolar type. I'm depressed a lot but I take Zoloft at 150 mg to help with it. My main side effects are weight gain and sexual issues."
