Racing thoughts normal in acute stage?

[[Me...]]

Hey guys, hope all is well.

 

I am only 2 weeks out but I was just wondering if anyone's racing thoughts gets the best of them during the acute stage. I never experienced it anywhere near this bad before I even started lorazepam. I just want to know if it's going to settle down eventually because some times through out the day it is unmanageable. Love you all and have faith.

Yes, i had severe racing and ruminating thougths during my acute period after detoxing from a large dose of Ativan. I had noticeable improvement after my acute period which lasted about 25 days.  So, yes, it will settle down. My guess is that you will see noticeble improvement over the next month.

I am 3 weeks after going cold turkey at a detox facility. My thoughts do not stop! In the beginning I was constantly thinking (and crying) about traumatic events that have happened during my life. It's awful. Good luck with everything!
