Tethered?

[[re...]]

 

I am feeling tethered to the meds prescribed to help through the Benzo wd

 

They all have a withdraw or rebound.

 

Am I stuck on these pills!?!?

 

Propranolol: current dose 5 mg three times  daily

Visteral:  25 mg twice daily (sometimes I take one extra)

Just got put on Prozac 5 mg and its causing me to be rev'd up and when I call the doc to ask what I should do, no call back.

 

I'm posting a lot lately.  Prob need to stop but I have NOONE that understands

While you are taking these meds are you seeing a therapist or the like to learn coping skills?

I assume that you have anxiety, so learning things like mindfulness and CBT can help.  I'm finally trying to grasp these things with a therapist myself.

My goal is to be drug free when I kick the Benzos.

Also, I've read that EMDR can help with anxiety as well as many other things.

As you can see in my signature I am a big fan of not taking anything against depression, anxiety and so on. Because without the medications I feel a lot better. Of course you will have to train your mind and body to cope in other ways but you can do that - no side effects then.

If you feel you are poisoned from all the stuff, get rid of each one after the other, slowly tapering. Why not.
