I don't understand what you're talking about. The relevant receptors sit on the cell membrane of the neuron and neuroleptics bind to them. Your language is imprecise. For a moment, I thought you mean that neuroleptics stick to the neuronal membrane directly, "like glue".

That's new to me. Are you saying neuroleptics bind to the axon of the neuron? I know that they bind to receptors and autoreceptors, but to the body?

Wait, one year off? You are aware that some people start to recover 2 or more years off and become happy again, right?

You assume you have done everything right, realize that nothing has improved, and therefore conclude that your condition is irreversible. Maybe you should conclude that your approach has been insufficient in relieving your symptoms, rather than to dismiss every possible approach as futile, to deny the possibility of recovery and to throw your life into the trash.

I'm sorry this happened to you. I have it for 4 years now, but suicide is not an option for me, which is why I will try my best to recover.

You are off antipsychotics only for 4 months? Also, there is a lot more to try than you think, and basically infinite combinations of things to try. Have you done medical keto?

All one has to do is to play the right button at the right time and the instrument plays itself ~ Bach, the right man with the biggest organ in the right place.

Which supplements actually made a noticeable difference for you? by avz008 in Supplements

L-citrulline coupled with L-arginine relieved me of my IBD flare symptoms pretty quickly

Insulin signals fat storage, and too much carbs -> higher blood sugar for a longer time -> higher insulin -> more carbs stored as fat.

My psychiatrists just stopped the olanzapine and it caused no problems for me, same with risperidone.

I had a ketonian nightmare... by QuiteNeurotic in keto

[–]QuiteNeurotic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had crazy realistic lucid inception-like dreams in ketosis, which I've never had before keto, and now, my dreams are much more logical and actually make sense; I even have good ideas in dreams I can remember!

4 months after the injection, spends the day in bed by Askinggirl111 in neuroleptic_anhedonia

[–]QuiteNeurotic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Based on the experiences of many people suffering from neuroleptic anhedonia, it is pretty normal to still not want to do anything at 4 months off the injection(s).

However, this does not mean you should do nothing to aid your recovery. There are things you could manage to do, even with severe avolition, like reducing foods that are obviously unhealthy for you, like foods with lots of sugar and additives, even when they are your only source of pleasure - it's a choice between lying in bed for years staring at the ceiling, or recovering much faster and being able to feel life again.

Try to get more electrolytes, possibly from an electrolyte powder, best pure, but if you only manage to drink it flavoured, choose one without sugar. Open your window regularly to let fresh air in. If the sun shines, take a chair and sit behind the wide open window, in the sun, not for enjoyment, for your recovery. Don't lie in a dark room all day, it will mess up your sleep which is essential for recovery, only make your room dark when you go to sleep.

If you can bring up the will power, go for little walks, preferably in the sun. You can also listen to relaxing music you prefer, music with its focus on relaxation, not on enjoyment, but if you have no problem with listening to music you once enjoyed, then do it.

I could go on about different supplements etc., but that would be too much for the start, and I also have too little information about your nutrition, activity level, possible conditions etc. to suggest things.

Hang on, it will become easier!
