[il...] Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Hopefully, this will be my last celebration before my success story. (Which, at this rate, won't be too long.) Since month 6, sxs have been dropping off like flies. However, regardless of my physical and/or emotional improvement, mental symptoms were still very much here, not seeming to break up much, and simply horrifying. I very much had a horror movie of a brain still. I feel like I platued at 7 months, and I did, up until Wednesday, which turned out to be 7 months and 2 weeks exactly. I'm down to 3 or 4 sxs and they're even breaking up now. In fact, I've had two days now where I've had an entirely new level of MENTAL clarity, focus, and calm. Cognition came back with a vengeance, as well. I could've walked right in a career job. Not just any job, a career job. (I've been in leadership roles since I was 15) Memory came flooding back. I was calmer than when I took a Xanax. It was absolutely beautiful, I ended up crying tears of sheer joy. Everything in my mind just clicked. I got to see what it would be like, how they say "one foot in heaven", and totally calm. It was peaceful. It was happy. It was serene. It was CLEAR. I can even read again. This was one of the scariest sxs. Glory to God!! I am not far from this newfound existence. I pray my day is a good one. In fact that was honestly that last thing I was waiting for - a "big turn" *mentally.* And I am so grateful. Prayers for all, Never again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[il...] Posted July 22, 2016 Author Share Posted July 22, 2016 You are a great soul. You deserve this more than anybody. Thank you for your support for people still suffering. I don't deserve that, but thank you. We all deserve to be healed, every last one of us. It will happen for everyone! I'm a little fragile yet, but it's definitely on its way. I couldn't be more grateful. These posts aren't about me, though -- I promise myself to stay around to provide hope to the new members. Everyone heals! Time is the only thing that varies. God bless!

[Na...] Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Great you are making so much progress in a short time also. I am also doing pretty good with a few symptoms to kick. How is your vision doing? My vision is in static and see afterimages of lights and light auras too. I hope this also goes away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean that everything looked 2D, right? I have that symptom big time and I can't stand it. I can read, but my ability to that is still really impaired. Before all this, I was a voracious reader, but now ughh... Fuck that symptom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[bl...] Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 Congratulations, illneverdothisagain!! I turned a HUGE corner at 8 months out. I was bedridden 98% of the time up until then, and the mental clarity came back also at that time! When in a bad wave most sxs come back but I can mostly function and work my way thru it. (I couldn't do that 2 months prior to stopping xanax...an the first 8 months free. Wow, that 10 months of pure relentless torture!) Progress my friend!! Keep pushing forward sweetheart!!
