[Oh I am SO  happy to see this support group!!! I was(am)on Klonopin for 20 yrs. Started at 2mg a day.Presently at 1 mg a day.This after l8 months. I always felt I was not going fast enough in my cuts. Now I know that I am doing the right thing for ME. I've been holding my last cut for 3 months now and probably will stay holding for another month or two. size=12pt][/size]

Hiya... -Welcome... :)

I get the feeling you know your path..!  -So well done on that..!!

Long holding is usually born from tough times, so I imagine you have a bit of history..? Feel free to share, when it suits...

-I love hearing about people that have deemed long holds to be part of their plan, and how that came about...

:)

Night Gilly... :)

Morning Jen I am so sorry you are suffering this is not easy for anyone.l wish l could help you however l don't feel l can as you keep trying to push through and it isn't working.l know you keep saying that this drug never suited you etc however l think you are doing more harm than good trying to lower when you are not able to cope.l know you are allowing fear to dictate your taper.l hope you manage to find some way to deal with this.

  Love and hugs Stut X

Hi I’m new to BB.  I’m having a hard time navigating the site!!  Ive gone fro 3.5 mg of Ativan, for 15 yrs for insomnia, took Levaquin for a sinus infection , went into acute w.  In the last yr since that I went to rapid detox only to go back to acute.  Started on Valium 48 mg daily for 4 months.  Rapid detox again.  1 month off of benzos.  Zero sleep for 21 days.  So sick.  Gave in on day  22 went on 35 mg of Librium to be able to function again.  Now feeling sick off and on. Prob tolerance withdrawal.  Do I start a 5 per cent taper, do I wait???  Do I go up on a higher dose to become more stable and then start a taper??? Idk the difference between holding, and tolerance withdrawal. If I’m having tolerance w, how does holding further help????    So confused.  Anyone have any advise?? My doctor doesn’t.Thank u

Hi CM, I am no expert and you have had a lot going on here. Your central nervous system and brain really need to be stabilized.  I don't think you are in tolerance.  I think you have just jumped without holding between benzo's until your system is just on overload.  IMO, you should hold, and it will it will probably be a longer hold than you are expecting.  You need to stabilize before you do anything else.  Stabilize doesn't mean no symptoms, it means they are at least close to tolerable.  Once that happens, you can be looking for a way to begin again.  Do a lot of reading on this sight, read the Ashton manual, ask questions. There are more ways to taper than most people know about, so read and ask questions until you find the one that feels right to you.  The Home Page is ful of different threads about all things Withdrawal.  Good luck, we are here.  Mary ☮️🙏💜

Welcome CM agree totally with what Mary has said.Allow your brain to stabilise which is usually months and then slowly reduce.

Twinny!!!!! :yippee: :yippee: :yippee: so excited to read your post! The LHSG is going to be in good spirits today after seeing you've dropped in. I think you give us all a lift in spirit when you stop in. I hope you're doing well, you and your sis. I'm feeling much better, probably will start tapering within the next week. This damn virus has put a damper on that 😜 hope to see you around more we need you, if it sounds like I'm begging I am :laugh: :laugh: you really do lift us up, but completely understand your reasons for not being here so much.

 

Love you twinny! Be well 😊

Trish ❤️

Stut,how come I am never offered one of your big hugs, oh sure I get a hug once in a while but never the bIG ones, damn.  Are you home from the beach?  What is going on in your life, did you pick up a man?  Are you feeling better?  Do you know how much I miss you and love the babies  :laugh: :laugh:

Hi Intend! Best wishes to you. I didn't know Chinchuck was in the UK. I will run a check on Propylene Glycol. Cheers!  English xxx

 

Gilly, I thought I had read Chin refer to the NHS GP and the NHS psychiatrist that she was seeing which is why I think she is in the U.K.

 

If I’m mistaken, Chin or someone else can correct me.

 

And thanks for checking on that.
