[ne...] Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Hi! I haven't posted here in a while. However, I am now 8 months of being totally off all my psych poisons Gabapentin (2 3/4 years), Zoplicone (2 3/4 years), Seroquel (14 months) and Remeron (8 3/4 months). At the present time I am still going through w/d hell from the Remeron and possibly the Seroquel. My symptoms are: burning, tingling, numbness, vibrations throughout body and head, chronic insomnia (no sleep most nights and days for sometimes a couple of weeks or longer), adrenaline surges, myoclonic jerks, dp/dr, burning brain, feeling like I'm either going insane or will drop dead at any moment and the list goes on. I have had a few windows in the past months, however they are brief and then I am right back into the horrendous w/d symptoms again. I am getting extremely weak and tired and terrified this will never end. I just don't know how much longer my body and mind can tolerate this extremely inhumane and painful suffering on a 24/7 basis. Has anyone else coming off this poison experienced such horrendous w/d symptoms 4 this long? I also suffer from Lyme Disease, Hashimoto's disease and adrenal exhaustion. Is this normal 2 b going through this at this intensity for this long? I would truly appreciate hearing and talking with others that have suffered to this extent while getting off this drug. I did a slow taper and still I am suffering horrendously. Please, I need 2 know that this will end and that I won't go insane in the meantime.

[La...] Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Patience will set you free, this takes longer than we are willing to admit/accept. Two years out I was still having sxs from a very SHORT low dose course of benzos. It gets better, really it does, please hold on and stay away from taking any benzos, you will feel GREAT once again........in time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
