Scared and confused about my taper need support


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi,

 

I restarted a day micro tape on July 31st after holding for about 5 weeks since the end of June.  During that hold, I tried compounding pills for two weeks, which made me sick due to the fillers.  I switched back to dry cutting and also moved some of my night time dose into my two day time doses. 

 

I've done four .001 cuts since July 31st.  I did ccchhh and now another cut.  I find myself and this has been since the beginning if being put back on Clonazepam crying everyday.  I dont sleep well but now even when I do sleep, I still feel fearful and sad about ever getting off this medication. 

 

My life stopped completely in November 2018 when I had a terrible end to a Lamictal taper.

 

My big fear is that if I hold too long, it will make it harder to get off this medication but my thinking may be confused.  I usually feel better in the evening and then the whole nightmare begins the next say.  I am basically housebound though I get out a little when I can. 

 

Is what I am experiencing normal in withdrawal? Meaning misery every day with depression and crying? 

 

I have at least a year of tapering in front of me and it overwhelms me.  My husband, who has been great has seen me go through 2 previous tapers but is now hinting I should consider other meds.

 

I want to keep going but it's so hard.

Keep doing micro cutting. I did cold turkey and crashed my CNS. IT takes a long time to heal but it is worth it.
