3 Years TOTALLY healed, 6 year check in/support

Recommended Posts

Hi benzo buddies!

 

MusicBuddy here. I can't believe it's been 6 years since the jump of hell! I wanted to reach out and let you know that I am here as a support anchor for anyone going through this nightmare. Recently I've had quite a few people reach out to me so I wanted to open up my table a bit more. You can read my success story on my profile in gritty detail but the highlights are : 8 years of ativan, tolerance withdrawal, weight loss, sensititivity to everything under the sun, seizures, heart stopped (flatlined) in the ER twice, rehab cold turkeyed me, reinstated and did a slower but still stupidly fast taper, had protracted withdrawal for 2 years with every gnarly symptom imaginable, to FULLY healed 3 years later. A rough ride! I have tons of tips and tricks to share so send me a message and hang in there!

Hi Obiwans007 Welcome to Benzobuddies

 

Is this what you wanted, a link to musicbuddy's 2.5 years recovery story

 

A HELL of a recovery story: HEALED at 2.5 years

 

I hope to read more about your journey The type of benzo you take or have taken. Have you started or finished your taper?  If you need taper/withdrawal, or post withdrawal support, you can post to one of these boards. You will get plenty of help, encouragement and support here.

sorry for this very specific and obsessive question but did you have cognitive problems from the withdrawal? if so, can you talk about what they were, how long you had them, and the process of recovering from them?

 

Thank you
