Hi jarik.

 

I’m sorry you’re still feeling bad. It sometimes takes a long time for the body to heal from benzodiazepines, much longer than you might think. I’m glad you are here to talk to other people about your remaining symptoms.

 

If you click this: Post-withdrawal Recovery Support  you can start chatting with other forum members.

 

Other members replying to your posts generally prefer to know where you are in the process, so here’s how to add your benzodiazepine information automatically to your posts: go to Profile, then Forum Profile, write your pertinent info (benzodiazepine, dose, taper history) in the text box and save. Thanks! Let us know if you need help with this.

 

Take care,

Challis

I used suction cup 7.5-15 mg overnight for 10 years and stopped it 5 months ago. I was using Klonopin 1-3 mg for 15 years and I have finished it six months ago. I sleep poorly for about 4-5 hours a night, between 2 hours, I sweat a lot at night, have to change my shirt every 45 minutes. the feeling is really miserable and i'm afraid this will never end. so i did a CT. it feels like I am losing this war

[[pi...]]

You are not losing the war, but the battle might last longer then you would want. Klonopin is a strong benzo and you stopped suddenly, cold turkey. Your nervous system is trying to adjust the major changes, this can take time. 

 

6 months is still very early in recovery.  The symptoms can remain strong at this stage, mine did.  You have to remember that you can't undo 15 years worth of benzo use in 6 months. 

 

You aren't alone, others have been through this and come out well and healed. It's best to give it time, focus on getting through each hour and each day.

There is, quite frankly, a hell of clonopine, for months there has been a visual impairment of lightning with sawtooth patterns, i.e. migraine headaches and no knowledge because of the relief of the heart symptom of SVT and the intervening flimmer. Sedatives help best when left in the jar, in the long run.

The twin brother ate clonopin and the suicide will be tomorrow 10 years, I do not want his fate.

I pramadedic, I knew that the tranquilizers are addictive, but I never could have thought that are so addictive.

Are you telling us you're benzo free and feeling a little better now that you've gotten your iron deficiency under control?

Hi Jarik,

 

Thank you for helping me realize that my sweating could be from withdrawal. I'm glad you came here to talk about what you are going through even though English isn't your first language.

 

Sounds like you've had a lot of improvement! It's the darkest time of the year, the light is coming back!

 

Cheers,

13 months after discontinuation of sleeping pills Z and 14 months after discontinuation of clonocipine. I feel better, but I'm still convalescent and sweating at night is hard, I wake up three times a night and sweating. I've eaten iron only 2.5 months and should eat 5 months and examinations are to visit the iron stores in the blood, restless legs has eased, but iron therapy is still in progress, but I believe that all these unpleasant things will slowly backwards. My english is very bad.

Hi Jarik

 

Congratulations on getting off the Klonopin and Zopiclone/Imovane.  You did it the hard way, but sometimes it is the only way.  And you are healing.  The night sweats are a common withdrawal symptom.  This will eventually pass.  It seems you are getting your health needs managed and have a light at the end of the tunnel.  I am glad to hear you are getting better sleep.  Just imagine, by Summer that so much of this will be behind you.

Yesterday was the full 15 months since the discontinuation of Klonop and the day before yesterday was the full 14 months since the discontinuation of zopinox.

at night I still sweat a lot and my muscle tension is high and my neck is sore. is this no longer normal when it is about a long time after stopping. if it is normal, then there are really dangerous drugs.

It is normal when you stop suddenly.  You did what is called a cold turkey.  It is the hardest way to stop.  All of a sudden.  The drugs you were on are very powerful.  But you are healing and you will continue to heal.

16 months after stopping clonocepine and never these withdrawal symptoms stop, the lower stomach is sore and sweating at night. The doctor cannot help.

[[Pa...]]

Did you get your iron levels sorted out?

 

Have you looked at chapter 3 of the Ashton manual lately, it helped me realize that what I was feeling was normal, she even explains why we feel them.

The manual is available in other languages, hopefully one of them will help you better understand what you're feeling. https://www.benzo.org.uk/ashlangs.htm

Iron values ​​have improved, currently 55, when reference values ​​are 30-400 and should reach a minimum value of 100 because of restless legs and hard night sweats and I change my shirt about 4-5 times a night and thyroid tests were normal and have dizziness and headaches and I eat currently taking antibiotics for sinusitis and the neck is sore.

[[Pa...]]

It's good there has been some improvement but you've got a lot of other things going on, darn it.
