[dr...] Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Hi all! I can say now that I know we all heal. I took 19 months to taper. I had to be on sick leave for two years, and then retire. I lost parents, step and whole, right after I jumped, one after the other almost like on a schedule. I have been under a lot of family and emotional turbulence since then because of stuff I didn't know. I wouldn't have been able to deal with any of this given a years or two change in the calendar. It looks like it's been about 4 years from job crisis to 2 years off benzos. I still have some symptoms, but mainly it's my joints and hip, which miraculously left me alone and blissful for the whole taper, that are demanding that I take action and have an exercise regimen etc. Good luck all. Don't let this thing get you demoralized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you feel 16 months was a milestone? Hi, I am doing okay most days, but I still have bad nights/days and still sensitive to stress. Insomnia is my longest lasting symptom.
