Benzo Withdrawal is Like Alzheimer's

[[bo...]]

I have been reading more and more about alzheimer's. I seriously doubt I have it at age 32, and I'm almost positive that what I'm going through it s result of the medication. But it's many of the symptoms for that appear early in alzheimer's are similar to what I'm going through. Here are some of the symptoms.

 

    Memory loss--X

    Poor judgment leading to bad decisions

    Loss of spontaneity and sense of initiative--X

    Taking longer to complete normal daily tasks--X

    Repeating questions--X

    Trouble handling money and paying bills

    Wandering and getting lost

    Losing things or misplacing them in odd places

    Mood and personality changes--X

    Increased anxiety and/or aggression--X

 

I have a lot of these symptoms. The one that bugs me most is I can't think of my past clearly at all. I really hope it comes back.

A lot of diseases and illnesses mimic this that's for sure. Ive been reading up on prodromal stages of schizophrenia and have most of them! Also ALS/MS, seizure disorders to name a few.

It is most like ME which I have had a diagnosis of since 1996 and terrified benzo has been helping it.

Before I reinstated in March 2018 I couldn’t remember how to write or string a sentence together, couldn’t work out how to cut up a carrot, set 2 heat packs on fire in the microwave - extreme confusion.

 

A few weeks ago I forgot my own name and thought of several old friend’s names before I remembered mine.

BBB,

 

I hope you are not getting info on DR. Google?  Google could convince me I have 10 diseases (I may have at 60).

When you say anger for no reason I'm a little confused. We all have a thousand reasons to be angry.

People I'm around aren't doing anything that would normally elicit anger yet I feel mad at them. I have anger that I didn't have before.

During my rage attacks my liver was so tense. By removing de tension around and also along the body I would improve a lot my rage thoughts
