[pu...] Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 I saw a new doc today who suggested I reinstate on Valium to stabilize. I really don’t know what to do. If I even considered that, I’d have no idea what dosage. Could someone please give me some feedback? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need some advice. I really hate to go back on it after the hell I have been through. I took my first dose of propranolol a while ago for heart palps. I am supposed to start mirtazipine tonight. Can anyone please help me sort through what to do about this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Fi...] Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Ouch. Don't know what your symptoms are but you've been Benzo free for 6 months and have probably had some good healing in that time. I'm tapering slow, but hope I never go back once I'm off since I'm already super kindled which makes withdrawals so much worse. I DO take 7.5 Remeron/Mirtazapine that has helped me tremendously with my taper/withdrawal symptoms. It helps me sleep and helps my incessant dry heaving/nausea that I had without the Remeron. I know it's one more drug to taper. I have to go slow so I needed to control those symptoms. I know a lot of people reinstate Benzos because of serious situations and I can't advise you either way, but there's never any guarantees with these meds. That's the hard part..., everybody is so different. I take Buspar too which has helped me some with rebound anxiety. For myself, once I'm pharmacy free, I want to try CBD oil or something non-dependency forming that I can take occasionally. I'm so sorry to hear of your cold turkey situation. That must have been brutal and sorry that you're still suffering. I hope you're able to find what's best for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
