Benzo Free For Six Months Today

I had my last dose of Clonazepam six months ago, on Dec. 28, 2017.

 

Mornings are rough, but  I often feel somewhat better by the late afternoon, early evening.  I try to get out, when I can.

 

I had a problem letting go of the remaining benzos I had but I flushed them all, two days ago.

 

I am getting better, albeit very slowly, and sometimes almost feel normal. 

 

Eternally grateful for all the help I've received here!

Congrats on 6 months! Good for you on getting rid of the poison! Hope you continue feel better and better... every day we are healing 

Zeph, I'm at the 7.5 month mark. Like you, my mornings are rough. I slowly come to life around noon. My energy dips sometimes in the afternoon, but I try to fight it off with a brisk walk. I find that naps, though often very tempting, leave me feeling pretty lousy when I wake up. Recovery for me is slow but continuing. I track my improvement by the month rather than in days or weeks.  Hang in there. We all heal.

I have a very strong tendency to take naps in the morning and afternoon, but it's not worth it.  Even if I'm even able to fall asleep for a few minutes, the repercussions are terrible and can screw up the rest of the day.  It's a hard habit to break, even though I suffer due to it.
