Problems with reading during withdrawals

[[Lm...]]

Reading revs up my system. Any thoughts how I can read without this happening or tips?

 

I am off Xanax for 63 days mows (.50 mg daily) off completely now....

LM,

  Does reading make you anxious? Or dizzy? I tried to read yesterday and got dizzy and then panicky.

 

Are you reading for fun? Or trying to study?

I get pressure and burning sensations in my head. Reading for both pleasure and research

I couldn't read or watch TV for many months following my cold turkey, the content was too intense and I couldn't sit still or concentrate.  You might have to forgo the reading for pleasure and just try to muddle through the research for now.

I also have head pressure and burning... when these sxs kick in, I cannot really concentrate on anything...

I have the same problem with reading. Try audio books or just soothing ocean sounds on the ipod/CD?

Reading gets me dizzy quite a lot now, and my brain doesn't even remember what I've read

Right on LC! Audio books are what's up! I can't read b/c of dizziness, but audiobooks have been a blessing.  In the early days I even got a few juvenile titles because it was all I could focus on. My local library has tons of audiobooks free.

 

I'm in love with my talking books

My brain is just to exhaused to read most days.

My #1 main symptom from this whole experience is terrible blurred vision. I had fantastic sight before clonazepam and now after the withdrawls, It is terrible up close and at a distance. Never the same - comes and goes. I also see small spots from side to side at times??
