Head zaps


[Ir...]

Recommended Posts

Hi Iris01,

 

First, congratulations in finishing two weeks of your taper.  Way to go - 14 days done on your journey.

 

I had/have head zaps, head pressure, intense headaches, brain shivers, floaty feeling in my head and vertigo during my taper and also after jumping last week. They are awful feelings and can be scary at times. Sometimes I have to just sit and look forward because of how intense it gets.  But when the feelings pass, it feels terrific.  I think that feeling gets me through when they come back.

 

For me the following things have helped: advil or tylenol, cold ice packs, lying on my right side, drinking extra water, and closing my eyes.

 

I hope you get some relief soon.

Moving Forward,

 

Thank YOU so much for your reply! Sometimes it just helps knowing we aren't alone. It sound like you are starting your journey to being completely benzo free. I wish you all the best for a relatively smooth ride from here on out.

 

Ps Migraines stink!
