4 years off benzo

I made it to 4 years and I’m very grateful being still a life.

I’m off benzo 4 years and 18 months everything including projesterone cream.

I tried everything what you can think off to heal or even just to get a little better.. Nothing helped.

Tried remeron...made it worse

Tried CBD oil for 4 months...dit not help at all

Tried projesterone cream 1.5 years...made it worse...many people say is a natural benzo acting on a same receptors like benzo, what I did not know.

Tried many many supplements....nothing was working

I’m still very sick with bad burning head-pain, anxiety, depression, tinnitus, and body pain. But some day I’m more positive and thinking maybe I will survive this hell.

Those days give me some hope to push forward

So today I’m celebrating I’m still a life and I have some positive thoughts here and there...those days I feel 50% better. (Only 2 days/ month)) have more  energy and less pain.

Sleep some days getting better too. For 4 years I was able to sleep only 2-3 broken hrs / night now some nights I can sleep 5 broken hrs.

I just read the success story from fake it until you make it....we have no other choice to stay a life to try to fake it and stay positive, believe all those people who made it it will come for us too.

Love you all

Vica

I am celebrating with you, and I am celebrating YOU.

And every little success and progress!

My dear friend, you can read in my latest topic that one tinitus I had for years just was switched off when I took that hormone. It can be so simple but we need to find the solution. I dont know if we can find one for each symptom or problem, I wish it was like that, all I want to say with that is: Maybe out there is a solution for you, Vica. And dont you dare to give up. You have come soo far and you still have your family and your life - this is A LOT, if one can maintain that while suffering so hard, -we often forget about this fact, but it IS a fact.

So, dearest: Happy birthday! May the best year be the one which starts tomorrow, with a lot of hope and good feelings

Thank you Marigold, you always so kind to me.

I do hope one day I will find something what will ease my suffering. Even if is medication...just a fear what I have from now even from supplements is huge. So far everything made my symptoms worse

This does not mean you will not find something which will help you. The past is the past. Maybe your body has a reason not to let you take anything at this moment. Before I knew so much about minerals, vitamins and the other micro and macro-s, I worked my ass of to get a higher iron level.

Did not work. Could not tolerate any iron. Felt weak all the time. Every doctor said you need to take iron.

And in the end, after I had studied and learned - I knew why my body needed to maintain a low iron level, fixed the original problem and without any intake of iron, the levels are excellent now. If I had had that knowledge 15 years ago!!

Just as an example. We blame ourself for not delivering the normal to us, but there might be a reason and a wisdom the body has. I would trust it and do what you do: Try to find out more and lean. This means feeling helpless, I know. But this is the feeling we start with reaching out for a solution.

You are doing a great Job vica and one day, it will be better!!

Thank you Marigold, I hope and pray you are right and I will get better one day along all this BB here who are still struggling.

Sendings my hugs and love

CONGRATULATIONS Vica! And a big hug!
