Hello. I am a 29 year old boy who has been using Clonazepam since October in low doses. I made a cold t. In April and I had a turnaround in my life. I would like to tell my story in the forum and how I have been giving this situation. At the present time I resumed the medication for weaning correctly

 

Original in Portuguese:

 

Olá. Sou um jovem de 29 anos, usuário de clonazepam desde outubro em doses baixas. Efetuei um cold t. Em abril e tive uma reviravolta em minha vida. Gostaria de contar minha história no fórum e como venho me dando com esta situação. No atual momento retomei a medicação para efetuar o desmame correto

Welcome to the forum! We're glad to have you as a new member.  :smitten:

 

I've used Google Translator to translate your post this time, but since this is an English speaking forum, we do ask that in the future you post in English.  Please use a translator like Google if necessary.

 

You'll find lots of information and support here.  Our members have been through all aspects of withdrawal, and you're likely to find  people who understand what you're going through. For those who are currently tapering, we suggest reducing no faster than 5-10% every 10-14 days, and some taper even slower than that.  One exception: very short-term users of a few weeks or less may be able to taper faster. 

 

Having some withdrawal symptoms is normal, especially near the end of a taper and for a few months after discontinuing the medication.  First/only withdrawals after a slow taper tend to be easier than multiple reinstatements/withdrawals over time, which may make symptoms worse and longer lasting. The most common symptoms are anxiety and insomnia but there are many others. These are temporary and will go away in time.

 

Here are a few links you may find useful:

 

Withdrawal Support Board

 

The Ashton Manual is an authoritative source on what to expect in withdrawal and recovery.  Dr. Ashton is an expert in the field. Section III explains and describes symptoms, and there is also a section with suggested taper schedules.

 

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.

 

Again, welcome!
