Hi everyone,
I’ve been struggling with psychosis more lately and my psychiatrist and family think it might be a good idea for me to go on an injection form of the antipsychotic I’m on. Does anyone have experience with antipsychotic injections? Have they been helpful? |

Hi, I never have taken antipsychotics by injection but I know they can be helpful for many. I hope someone more knowledgeable about the matter replies.

I was on maintena injections for about a year after being psychotic. It really helped! I am now stable and working.

I was on them they didn't help me. I was still psychotic. They kept saying next shot should work. I ended up hospitalized got with a different psychiatrist and put on latuda. Now stable and working.
