13 months off..... is this still withdrawal?


Recommended Posts

I am in a funk at 13 months post cold turkey from .5mg of klonopin..... I'm still suffering with OCD, anxiety, depression, racing thoughts, jumbled thoughts, random thoughts,... it drives me crazy, I'm terrified it's something much worse like psychosis or schizophrenia.  :(  Could this possibly be this klonopin withdrawal from .5mg?

:-[:( :'(  >:(:-\

Please let me know your thoughts

I'm sure you all know how it is to be so anxious about something....

I need some opinions....

 

Thanks in advance.

Of course that still WD.

 

Totally sure.

 

Hold on. Another year, and things will get better. Time is different in benzo wd - no comparison to other problems or diseases.

 

You have made it that far - it will get better.

Yes, it's still withdrawal.....I still have it and it also makes me scared. Read Dr. Jennifer Leigh's blog posts. Withdrawal is a syndrome, it takes a looooooong time to heal from it. Time time time I know it's hard. :(

Thanks for replying, the anxiety and depression will make you think the worst things. Then you start freaking out and need reassurance.  I started a low dose of Zoloft to help with it all bc I was becoming very hopeless.... I have only been taking the Zoloft for about 5 days.... no terrible side effects as of yet,.... I know starting an AD while still dealing with withdrawals can be a bad thing but I felt I had to do something.... any thoughts on me starting the Zoloft?? Terrible idea?
