Something Positive


[Pa...]

Recommended Posts

So the past week was brutal bc hormones made wd sx's way worse.

BUT..my cortisol surges are lessening. Still elevated, but not so I feel like I'm out of my mind. this symptom comes and goes now, whereas before it was CONSTANT torture. My dreams were rather normal last night and I did not wake drenched in sweat ( I know gross...but its true).

 

Progress or temporary relief...I'll take it!

Today is my 1-year anniversary off of Clonazepam, and I'm feeling fantastic! I only have a few remaining symptoms (tinnitus, sleep disturbances, and some minor head pressure/electricity), and I'm looking forward to writing my success story soon. This horrific experience has helped me become the best version of myself, and I truly feel stronger, healthier, more balanced, and more peaceful than ever before.

 

One year ago I was just starting a medical leave because I was in such a bad state. There wasn't much I could do for awhile, so I watched this Benzo Recovery Meditation over and over: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XWjevVLi1_Q. At the time, I didn't believe the words, but now I know they're true. I hope it helps some of you. And you WILL feel better. Time heals us all.

 

Sending you all so much love and strength!

Thank you! I haven't written my story yet...I want to be just a bit further along in my recovery. I think I'm at 90%, so maybe in a month or two! :)

Packy, thank you so much for this post. I really needed to see all of the positive responses.

 

I’ve been in a horrific 2 month wave, but reading the positive responses gives me hope. I have so many positive things to be grateful for. I will be 2 years benzo free on Christmas Day, and I have had many good days during that time. I have the most loving and supportive family and friends. I know that this will end some day.

 

Hugs of healing for everyone!

 

Sandy🥰🙏
