For Schizophrenia: My husband is borderline schizophrenic and he is given the injection once a month. He has been given the needle for 18 months. During this time he is always asleep, no energy, no interest in life, very slow walking and just can’t do anything. This is not living just existing. Is there an alternative to this drug. So fed up with it all. For Schizophrenia: This has helped with the symptoms of my illness. There are negative symptoms to it though. Foggy emotions, not sure if it’s cuz of the illness or the med. I am sort of happy now though, but no sex drive, periods, and gained 75 pounds. I took fluphenazine for a couple months, lost 20 pounds but felt worse than when I was on invega. |
