9 years recovered having problems again

I am 9 years recovered from Klonopin withdrawal.  I had the flu last week and it triggered a major panic at that has set my body off.  I haven’t been able to any relief from the constant panic and anxiety that has taken over my body.  My nerves are completely on edge and I am physically a mess again.  Feels like withdrawal all over again but I’m not withdrawing from anything.  I’m am so exhausted by this. I just need some relief.  I am struggling with the temptation to contact my doctor for a sedative.  That’s how bad it is.  I’ve been trying to push through for 5 days and nothing is helping.  I don’t now how to get my brain/body back on track.  I’m almost nonfunctional at this point.  Is there anything I can take to settle my body down that’s not a benzodiazepine?

I suggest that before you take some kind of drug that you join the Protracted Withdrawal part of forum.  There you will find others who have had setbacks also.  You are not alone.
