Is this a withdrawal symptom please?

[[Pi...]]

Hi all,my body is really hurting joint pain,even when am walking my feet I hurting!am 38!but feel 70...am also weak a lot...I know I push my body every day,as I have a child to look after an a dog an a home to run.i do this all on my own....so I can't just relax or switch off,which is making this process worse...I haven't been looking after my self,i.e. Not eating good an just smoking due to stress an heart ache...now tho am finding I can't touch any form of clothing as it goes thru me,or bare clothes on me.is this normal??i know am going to have to start looking after my self but am finding it difficult as I always have soooo much to do.its like have forgotten even how to eat good!is this all WD?or am I going even madder

Thanks guys pink

All of your symptoms are very similar to what I'm going through, and I've been told it's withdrawal. I have joint and muscle pain, weakness, tingling, fatigue, my feel hurt all the time, I get numbness and tingling in my legs, hands, back, and shoulders. It's awful but if you look at the bright side, it won't be forever! hope you feel better quickly!

Sounds very benzo to me... Much has eased up, but at its worst I couldnt stand bed sheets, but a heavy doona was ok...

BUT... pls dont shorten your legs up... it might make doing the floors easier, but imagine reaching the cobwebs...

Dont forget to look after you, as best you can... and i know how hard it is to do at times... Just make atleast some you time...

Best wishes... -hang in there...

Lol cob webs!!!thanks my friend...just so much stress from every day life..I have no idea how am going to get off this 5mg!!

Even an hour would be nice,we just moved 2 weeks ago my house is chaos trying to bring my son up,see to the dog I don't get a minute!!hope your ok

[[Ca...]]

Im ok... stuck on 2v..

glad you got the move sorted out... think u were packing last we spoke...

Hang in there, one step, one day, at a time...

Ps.. you should see my cobwebs... im thinking fire would be a good way to clean my house...

Take care...

Your doing amazing wow 2mg nearly there ❤️!!

My anxiety drives me to keep pushing an pushing not good!lol spring clean when your thru this ey

Am stuck on 5mg v...do these tablets change your personality?i don't even know who I am any more it's like an horrible version of me now I just want me back

[[Ca...]]

I think i will be paying penance on 2v for a while yet...

I dont think they have changed my core personality... but my wd ability is most certainly changed, and that has an effect...

Too hard to say whats what... from when i got hit by that damn car, the opiate sarga, years in hospital, etc... But im Happy to be ME... and i guess thats the whole point...

The hardest thing is being a single parent, as you know...

So sorry you were hit by a car I hope your ok now that must of been serious trauma!

Sit for a while on 2 mg it won't do you no harm.am glad you feel like you.my personality as gone am always angry I just don't know who I am any more...in so many different types of WD at the moment.i don't know my head from my ass....I keep thinking this is me,this horrible person.insomnia adding to it is brutal..eshhh my head is a complete mess!!!

Oh yes single parenting in this,as to the cruelest part of it all yea fine if it was just me.but my son having to go thru this too like yours makes me want to fist my support worker who put me on this shit...am angry all the time :/ !!think this move as wiped me out.plus have been out every day been busy.think have crashed with a bang today

[[Ca...]]

I can only imagine having to move...

I think that time out might be rather important for you...

I over did it and crashed once... not pretty...

 

Im ok, avoided a wheelchair... so all good... ty

My apparent personality can change... no emotion, short tempered/natured etc...

But the true me is still here and holding up...

[[Pi...]]

Thank god there was no wheel chair involved,an your ok.

Yea it was not good,I thought I had lost my mind with stress of having to move.an then ring around to change everything over...I did all that on my own.we have no family...but I did it!

Yea I do need some time out,I just don't get it! Yea crashing is not pretty at all.i have 3 lots of WD going on..just wish it was just benzo.

My emotions are flat,anger,every thing going!!am in here some where just lost at the moment.

I bought a scale the other day an am going to try an dry taper as the liquid is as a no go for me,3 month wasted trying to C/O didn't go well.

Haven't a clue how to do the maths for these scales tho.am wanting to do a 2% cut next am also kindled!just want to test the waters...am 14 months out from a Paxil CT an 7 month out from zopiclone no C/O with that on to diazpam!!what a mess it's been,have been butchered.

 

[[Ca...]]

I take my hat off to u...

Dont think i could have done a move...

There is a micro tapering support group for any help and math that u might need...

Take care...
