Swearing as a Valium w/d symptom

Is a suddenly very foul mouth one of those weird w/d symptoms? I’m serious. I cut to 2.25 mg valium this morning and have been swearing almost nonstop since then. It’s not that I mind:) I do wonder if it’s a sign of increased left temporal lobe activity.

Filtering words became difficult for me during wd. It's like I have to try so hard not to say obscene or mean things to people.

Me too!!!

Hi, not just you  - even at this stage in my w/d editing myself became more difficult and particularly with the public. our burrito shop always goes too fast when making them - we hate this, they screw up the orders. so last time in there i said to the two girls that I would tell them what to do , one at a time - said it rather stridently, lol.  I imagine with some self-awareness and herculean strength this too will pass 

 

I have not had anger at all but I'm at 10 mg of Valium.  Not as low dose as you guys are at.  My CNS is causing a healthy heart to have High BP, so I'm on HOLD for a month now on 10 mg of Valium.  I fear tapering more as I have still not stabilized.

I've noticed my road rage coming back as I taper lower. I'm always cursing other drivers again. It had disappeared during my benzo use.

When tapering last time I had constant bouts of rage and anger. Was having arguments with people out loud even though person wasn’t there. Also one day felt sudden compulsion to stick a knife in the man I love - had to tell him to get out of the room and shit the door. Terrifying!
