I actually c/t before, but did not know i had withdrawal symptoms, just thought it was physical back then.
Now i took xanax 4 weeks, got an interdose tolerance , cold turkeyed as i did not know it was addictive and ended up in the hospital where they also did not know it was withdrawal and got on flurazepam for 2,5 weeks. Then did a very quick taper 50% every two days. So it's not a total cold turkey but it wasn't really a taper either.
So all in all 6,5 weeks of benzo.
I did get other meds too: seroquel and trazodone, and i want to taper that off.
I [...] i'm getting better but i'm not sure right now. My acute has been all over the place. It was really hard, stayed in bed the first week. Had a better second week, third week was just really really horrible. Had a semi-good day today. It was bearable. I [...] i will get more windows and i can get rid off this insomnia.
My sx are: joint pain, muscle pain, nausea, burning pain in eyes and longs, dryness of mouth, my periods are abnormal, i bleed very easily, heart racing, sweating, anxiety, insomnia, ocd, weird bladder issues, pelvic pain
