Help me! Spasms and all over body shivers whilst shopping.

Hey guys,

I'm 6 days in to a 500 day DLMT from 5mg Valium, and I'm feeling pretty rough right now.

I tapered down successfully from 7.5mg.

I did take 2 rescue doses in the past to 7.5mg, but no more than that.

I've gone down to 4.995mg, but the withdrawals are really starting to get ugly.

Would a long hold do the world of good now, and should you hold if symptoms get too much?

I'm not in a rush to get off. No way.

I just want to remain as functional as possible. I need to be for my family and friends.

I don't want to risk seizure or neuropathy. God help me.

Dave.

Dave, my greatest advice (and what I did in moments like these) is to HOLD, my longest hold was for 3 months. That’s how bad I was feeling, but it was the best I could ever do.

Symptoms will subside....just hang on and be strong

And don’t worry too much.
