Will I recover from my CT


[Mu...]

Recommended Posts

I'm very scared that I'm never going to recover since I reinstated from cold turkeying 5 days ago, I can't sleep enough and I'm hypersensitive to my pc monitor, I have a burning sensation in my mouth and head and I feel very depressed, I'm scared to have damaged my brain, I'm 25 years old and I haven't experienced the pleasures of life as an adult, I want to stop taking antidepressants, I think they're making me worse, I need some hope right about now.

Hi,

 

These are normal symptoms, actually comparatively mild to the awful ymptoms I and others have experienced after cold-turkeying benzos.  You may feel this way for awhile, but please be assured this situation is temporary and will go away, especially since you're reinstated.  Time is the healer here.  Others much older than you have gone through this experience and healed, and you will too.  Good luck with the rest of your taper.

I have many other sxs like: twitching, very forgetful, high resting heart rate, obsessive thoughts, memory issues, not feeling like myself, dizziness,muscle weakness, DP/DR and insane fatigue, fear of not healing since I was reading about some people who had insane sxs for many years after reinstating,I feeling like my destiny is to keep suffering more and more, I catch myself thinking about all sorts of scenarios and memories, shaky vision, letters seem to jump around, not having any friends or gf makes everything worse, there's many other sxs but I'm sure you're familiar with them.Thank you so much for your reply it gave me some hope :)
