Hi  :) Welcome to BenzoBuddies!

 

Congrats on being  Xanax free. for some coming off gabapentin it is fairly easy and for others much more difficult. I am one of the later. I was put on 2800 mg for withdrawal 3.5 years ago. I have only managed to get to 1800 because of crippling withdrawal symptoms...all of which were mental.

 

 

You might like to check out The Ashton Manual it is an authoritative source on what to expect in withdrawal and recovery.  Dr. Ashton is an expert in the field. 

 

Please feel free to post to any of the dedicated boards, we have a wonderful community of people here, who will give sound advice. Members have been through all aspects of benzodiazepine use and withdrawal and are more than willing to share their experiences.

 

Members discuss their symptoms on the Post withdrawal recovery support.

 

Please take the time to Create a Signature.  This will allow others to see where you are in the process so they can better support you.

 

please call 911 if you feel you would ever act on suicidal thoughts.

 

Again Welcome!  :smitten:
