[gu...] Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 I should be jumping in the next 2 to 3 weeks, I haven't decided yet. I'm trying to build up the courage. I never thought it would be this difficult, but being at .07mgs I think the time to end this taper has come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[bi...] Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 Hey Benz Sort of like the Zep song good times bad times. It looks like your in pretty good position with your dose. I just say do what is comfortable for you. Im still trying to Figure out how long it takes to be out of the bodily system.. In detox they gave me multi vitamin folic acid and thiamine.

[bi...] Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 Good luck to everyone!!!!! I think we all have to do what we feel is right for each individual. I honestly was not stabilizing on lower doses. .25 x 2 day for like a week then .25 x1 which is .25 every 24 hours was just total hell Dry cutting klonopin. I did not have control over my cuts. I knew that They were going to pull the carpet out at .25 x2 so I got it down to .25x 1. Was not stabilizing on .25 x 2 either so ......... To be honest Yeah the physical dependancy is there and the hardist part for me still is the psychological part. I am co-dependant on klonopin. Ok like most of us oh trouble sleeping oh no problem take a pill not feeling right oh np take a pill oh I can still take 2 more oh ok stress oh np take a pill. I slept about 12 hrs a day on it.. no more klonopin no more 12 hrs of sleep. I am telling everyone this because yes your life does change. Im still having trouble adjusting. Take care everyone were still in this together!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[bi...] Posted April 17, 2014 Author Share Posted April 17, 2014 Seriously a rx addict. Not abuse took as I was told. No different from someone using coccaine or heroin for that matter . If you ate lemons everday for years yeah your body more than likely will crave lemons if you cut them out of your diet. I am hoping I am making sense, if this can help one person its worth it.

Yeah, you're making sense. We do get used to the benzo we take big time and we crave it because in the end we need it physically and psychologically. The problem with the mental side of things is when start to hesitate and second guess ourselves too much when it comes to our sxs and life after benzos coping with them. And with good reason as all of us here have done our fair bit of suffering with this. I'm not saying it's all on our minds but it surely plays a part.

There's always a zep song to say it for ya. Hearing that, Bill. I'm doing alright I guess. We'll see on Saturday when I CT. I'm waiting for the rebound anxiety which is my worry but I might be one of the lucky ones. We'll see. I've got my vits and zinc ready, along with Kalms which contain valerian, hops and gentian as they help kep me cool. Might get me some folic acid and thiamine tomorrow if that's what the detox center uses. Glad you're managing, Bill. Well done on cutting yourself free.

[gr...] Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 I will be jumping off the K within 90 days Im sure. Im already scared but also excited. I think Im scared also because after the K I have to deal with the G and its short half life. Its going to be worse than the K. I only dose the K once at night before bed, the G i take 3 times a day and getting to where I am now has been extremely hard on my CNS and whole body, brain. God give us strength.

[ua...] Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Then why not deal with the G first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[gr...] Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Im in tolerance wd and have been with the K for so long Uaydak. The G is supposed to help benzo wd, well of course it does, but then u have to deal with it. My Pdoc wants me off the K as we think and also many many people, friends here that the K has worsened my depression to a suicidal idealism point. Now im in my taper deeper on the the K so its just the road Im gonna take. I wonder how and what may help me with G taper..pffft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
