[Pa...] Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Hi Charlene, I quit Klonopin cold turkey too so I understand how you're feeling, I'm sorry it's still so bad. What's going on in your life, are you able to work or socialize, are you sleeping? Is your general health good, are you staying away from alcohol?

[di...] Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Stick around and you'll have plenty of buddies. You may get some ideas for things that you can try and things that you could try avoiding. There's a lot of that kind of thing here. The things which help one person, won't necessarily help everybody. Similarly, some people may see a huge benefit from e.g. cutting caffeine out of their diet whereas others may not notice much difference except they're missing their coffee. The only real cure is time - and this will go eventually - but a bunch of small improvements can stack up. I have personal experience with psychosis and rage at different times during my taper. I threw the TV remote at the screen and smashed it in one moment of rage. Have you tried CBD in any form? There are some studies which indicate it has antipsychotic properties. Also, many seasoned cannabis users know that if they take too much THC or for some reason need to be more sober, taking CBD will largely diminish the psychoactive effect. I recommend using a dry herb vaporizer and sampling a few different high CBD hemp strains. I say try a few strains because different strains affect people differently. The reason I recommend a vaporizer is that the effects are almost immediate so you can titrate your dose as you go and figure out quickly whether it's for you. I've never heard of people having horrible reactions to just CBD, though I am sure someone will post if they know different. For those it helps, it can help a lot. For those it doesn't help, there's nothing lost except money but I'd suggest it may be worth the risk. I really think it could help you but I know it's potentially daunting trying to get set up and wondering if something could go wrong etc. Feel free to PM if you have any questions. Whatever you do, I hope you'll stick around the forums. I think you've done amazingly to get so far apparently without anyone who understands. People here understand and that's a very valuable thing.

[Sc...] Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 I jumped a year before you. Suffering the worst setback I could've imagined. Almost like acute at this point. Its lonely and depressing and so hard but you're not alone. Were all here for you and for one another. This road is rough but these people here are the kindest humans because they offer help even when in need here. You're in the right place. Message everyone and anyone anytime. Were all here to help each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
