How does it happen?

So how does one just stop being in this hell? Meaning.... What? One day we just simply wake up feeling normal??  ::) I've read so many success stories and, am just curious how this just one day ends, like poof?

Here's my thoughts

 

I don't believe you just wake up one "well"

 

Its' a very slow gradual process through time. I have had the advantage of viewing this happening with my wife. Being along side her I've seen the huge improvements over a long period. She fails to see a lot of the improvements unfortunately and feels like a constant hell, but keeping an ongoing list of sxs that have come and gone helps and reminds her. 

 

A lot of folks want to put timelines on when they will feel just like they did prior to the the benzo WD's.

I personally think that's impossible. Especially for a long term benzo user. I have never used benzo's and I certainly don't feel like I did 2-3 years ago......as we are constantly changing as we age.

Good question. At 19 months I wish I had a answer for you. Some people just seem to get better over time.

This is the only thing I hold onto, is that time will heal. Its a waiting game and not very fun.

Yeah, I don't expect to be my old self, that ship sailed long ago. However I would like to be rid of this living in Groundhog Day in this living hell.
