I haven't had anxiety in the last 6 months or so and have been sleeping like a baby for just as long.
This is a monster of a drug and  has made me VERY aware of what I put into my body. I won't even take an aspirin or ibuprofen if I get a headache.
Thank you for the well wishes!

That's wonderful !

Congrats! It's good to know healing does happen. Can you explain what symptoms you had and when did you feel a turning point?

Congratulations!  I am 5 weeks off of gabapentin & klonopin (tho not that long on klonopin). Since Gabapentin is also a gaba drug, I am experiencing many of the same withdrawal symptoms as people withdrawing from benzos.  I am noticing a very slight let up of the anxiety of which I am very thankful, but there doesn't seem to be any letting up of the paresthesia -- skin burning sensation.  Did you have that symptom and if so, how long did it take to clear? Thank you so much for you positive story!!  It is very encouraging!

Congratulations [...]!  I'm so glad you fully recovered.  Best wishes to you.

Yesterday marked my 2 years of quitting CT.
It has been the worst and best 2 years of my life!
I wished I had journaled the 1st Year, I hardly have any recollection of 2015.
With every symptom imaginable, I made it through unscathed!
I have zero symptoms. I can't believe it! I thought I was permanently damaged.
The last symptom to go for me was ringing in the ears. That left about month 18.
I'm happier and healthier than before.
Never give up!   There is a light at the end of the tunnel 😊

congratulations on your amazing success I am so so so happy for you and that you have healed so well!! Did do you ever deal at all with Derealization or Depersonalization, just feeling mentally slow a bit? That is my scariest symptom and I'm worried I have permanently caused damage but I know the brain is amazing at healing itself, congratulations on your second chance at life I wish you nothing but the best!

OH THANK YOU FOR SHARING!!! These success journey's are what keep a lot of us going on this site....

I am thankful that I am slowly healing but I have lots of symptoms this morning so it is just what  needed to hear.

I have tinnitus non stop and great news to know that your eventually disappeared.
