[Je...] Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 Big change from this time last year. Had a lot of recent stressors which have sent me into somewhat of a wave for the past month! Overall, better than I was even before benzos! Thanking Father for his mercy ❤️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[ne...] Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 Amazing! In here today looking for positive stories since I'm low on my taper and it's difficult. Good for you and thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest [Su...] Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 Congratulations!! How did you feel on month 2? 3?!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Je...] Posted November 28, 2022 Author Share Posted November 28, 2022 Hi All - Thank you yes totally different even started my own business which I would have never done before. I do have waves that come and go but due to me having too much to drink (it was my bday weekend) but other than that forging through. For months 2,3 it was alot of the same symptoms i had been dealing with towards the end of my taper - panic attacks only when i had a ptsd like stressor somethings i couldnt even talk about but it would cause a panic attack with just the thought. That has gone away for the most part! That was biggy for me and now i can do those things but still have a touch of anxiety 🤗 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest [Su...] Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 Thank you for the 2,3 month update. I’m sorry to press, but I can’t even get my haircut, or socialize. When, for you, we’re you past the end-of-taper symptoms and able to function more fully? Yes-my patience is waning and I just, well, need some hope that maybe by Christmas I will see a real difference in function. Thank you 🙏 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Je...] Posted November 28, 2022 Author Share Posted November 28, 2022 Ok yes agoraphobia was there! That stopped around month 5-6 as I had to go back to work! It got better after that 🥰 Ive been out the house ever since - sometimes you have to force yourself ao it will push healing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[Ho...] Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 Outstanding! Did it take you around 18 months (as they say is the standard heal time) to feel mostly better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Re...] Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 Sugar, I am in the same boat as you if you want to PM me. Today is 3.5 months. I haven't had an actual window yet. Symptoms have decreased 30-->17 but are not gone yet. I am staying positive, although the mood swings have been REAL. Thank you for the 20-month update, Jenny. So happy for you.
