Hello. New here almost done with taper....want to give/get support

hi

I am new to this forum, but have been in withdrawal for 5 months. I’m down from 1.5 to 2 mg clonapin per day for anxiety to .25 right now. I just jumped from .5 to .25 last week and it’s been very hard.

I would like to offer support and get support when my brain tells me whacky stuff....

Last night in the middle of the night, I need to talk and don’t want to wake up my spouse.

The panic comes then and it helps to be able to get a reality check, that it’s just withdrawal and I’ll feel better soon.

I know thus is the case, but when I’m in it, it’s scary.

I believe that healing is possible as I’ve gotten so much better.

Off all meds except this and a little gab spent in.

It gets better.....to anyone just starting med withdrawal....it took me a year to get here and it’s so worth it!

That is a big jump, I think.  Yes, it is scary but as you say, so worth it.  I cannot wait until this is all behind me, but I know I can't rush it.

Take care and keep on keeping on.
