No w/d?

[[In...]]

You can look at my signature and see my taper. I have no withdrawals. Is this normal? I was having obsessive looping thoughts before I started to taper, they were the reason I got on these meds. They left altogether last week with I believe some Divine intervention. I have no physical symptoms. I've never been more clearheaded in my life actually. I read all these horror stories and I don't really get it. Lucky? Or just not at the point I'm going to be sick?

A lot of people get off benzos with little or no difficulty.  It's the less fortunate ones who have become tolerant/habituated that tend to inhabit this forum.

 

It's possible that you may eventually reach a point where some symptoms may kick in, but let's hope not.

Im glad to hear of this, Inked!!! I too have felt very little w/d and am feeling extremely clear headed as well. I do not think you will get sick if you keep to your same schedule and reevaluate along the way. I feel that my lack of sxs is due to long holds between my cuts. I will be jumping shortly. Keep the faith, dear!

This is a wonderful thread! I agree with Badsocref, I also know close relatives who had little to no issues when they went cold turkey.

YEAH!!!!  That's AWESOME!!!!  I feel better that I am lowering the dosage too. The WD or side effects lessens, but at the same time, I'm afraid to cut more within short time frame so...I'm going slow!  I'm very happy for you!!!! Awww, nice to hear some positive news!!!!

It's great that you've come on to this form to report that you've had no sxs from withdrawal. As said above, most stories on here might be quite scary because those suffering the most are the most likely to reach out. Those who don't, don't tend to share that experience. Perhaps because as far as they're concerned, it isn't really an experience.

 

If the way you are tapering is working for you, stick to it.
