Tolerance to pain and suffering

I am new here so please go easy. I have been looking for information on the science behind why some people can put themselves through horrible w/d of benzos for years and manage without seizures. Or do we have seizures we never knew of? I c/t so many times in my life out of fear and isolation. Out of not knowing the right places to find info. Being a single Mom did not help as your first fear is that if you tell someone, they will take your children. I wish I had found this site years ago.

NOONE should ever c/t. it is a nightmare and I think it could have taken years off of my life. The taper my dr used was splitting my pills bit by bit. It wasn't as painful.

I often chose c/t because it was laughable at one point for me to take a sliver of a pill. I only took dbl...my story became worse and in my LONG success story (I am sorry for that...I thought it would help the study. I did not read the fine print. HA.) I became so desperate that I sought an addiction specialist.

Could I still have a seizure? Did I have them and don't know?

 

Grateful, It sounds like you are well on your way to recovery.  I probably have little knowledge to offer, but it is my understanding that the risk of seizure is at the beginning, when we are actually withdrawing from the medication.  I have not read anything about the possibility that we might have seizures after that risk period ends.  Maybe I am not sure what you are asking, but I don't think you could have a seizure at this point.  I understand why you don't want to tell someone.  I don't want to because I'm afraid they would lock me up, haha!  Good luck to you.  I hope you are nearly healed.
