I'm on 117 mg Invega injection. I got the first two injections in the hospital. Second was yesterday. I was wondering how long until it takes effect. I had one freak out today.

Mine started working within a week. It brought me out of a suicidal black depression into a slight depression. Not perfect but an improvement at least. Kept me out of mania since I've been taking it, though I did have a long mixed/depressed episode. But now that I've had ECT I've been relatively stable so I hope Invega will keep that going.
