Starting a new thread just to ask a different question.

I can't take these symptoms anymore. I am suffering Beyond belief. Three weeks from last dose of extremely rapid taper. My body is turning into a fibrous board. Even though I took clonazepam 15 years ago (probably was several weeks) about .5,  without any issue or tolerance, is re instating completely out for me? I don't know if I can take this anymore plus I am afraid of long term issues. What makes people become protracted ? Please help. I was in rapid melts as per Doctor this time.

It is not the first time around for many on the protracted board. Symptoms can be prolonged as a result of stopping suddenly or too quickly, or because of kindling. It can also happen to those in their first withdrawal as well, but again most likely to happen to those who got off too quickly. It does not matter if you did not have any withdrawal symptoms, you still withdrew. Kindling because this is not your first withdrawal might explain why your symptoms are so severe.  A third withdrawal could be worse than this one even with a taper. It would be your third withdrawal.  Additional kindling could cause prolonged symptoms. Its a gamble if a reinstatement would be successful. I personally would not take the gamble, but the decision is totally up to you and we will support you in any decision you make.

Do you think I can get better? Pretty severe reaction. You got better after several times CT?

[[Du...]]

Can you get better from kindling even so? Doesn't mean u have to be protracted right? This is just so out of my realm of understanding bc I never even took vitamins. Now this?

[[Du...]]

Can everything come back to normal even after kindling? Muscles, etc? Right now my back muscles are like a board ):.

[[Du...]]

Should I have been on muscle relaxers instead of enduring those bad muscle convulsions that crushed my head, eyes, face, neck, back, etc...

No, it does not mean you will be protracted. i kindled horribly after three cold turkey withdrawals. My early symptoms were severe/horrific. However by my 5th month I was well on my way in healing.

The Ashton Manual

Ok. Thanks. I read Ashton cover to cover a million times. AFTER MY TAPER ):. So, there is hope for me. Did you have the stomach muscles tighten up and wave as a start of muscle tightening? It's so annoying. Affecting your abdomen );. Did you have major muscle tightening like head, face, neck... I hope this will just stop.

I am glad you read the Ashton Manual. I personally did not have any problems with my muscles.Not everyone has the same symptoms. When I was at your stage of acute I spent much time curled up in a ball hallucinating in my kitchen corner feeling like I was losing my mind. My symptoms were severe as well from kindling, just different. The above for me subsided immediately after the acute phase.

[[Du...]]

I give up. My eyes are a mess. Huge back muscles and ribs contracted, legs numb, lateral calf muscles, neck completely contracted :shot!!!, abdomen contracted and waves when an attack wants to come on. Heart palpitations, increased BP. Head and face contracting. What did I possibly miss? I can't imaging all this going away anytime soon. And it's hard for me to sleep, hence exhaustion.

I am sorry you are going through all of this. Are you still able to handle your patient load as a dentist?

I know one of the reasons you said you could not have reinstated is because you could not find a doctor who would help you. What about you? You are a doctor. You could have self prescribed enough for a proper taper when you found your doctor tapering you too quickly or in the first few days of withdrawal. Even at this point you could.

Hi benzos-R-cruel,

You should start your own thread on the topic. That way others will see it as well.

You can not self prescribe this class. And, truthfully, I didn't understand the taper well enough until I was off. I kept asking at that point and got no cooperation and no one understood.

Yes you can lose your license for self prescribing. Not worth the risk.
