6 months out and experiencing windows and waves....


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone, It's been 6 months since my last valium dose and my low energy is a lot better but i am still experiencing aches

in my joints and still feel ropey to be honest.

 

However, i do feel an overall change for the better but it is only slight. Wow, i did'nt expect this when i came off them it is hard

work !  In the last month i have had two or three windows that have lasted a few days where i feel a lot better and my symptoms

seem to ease up. Then a few days ago my symptoms came back and i am aching again which is a bit down heartening.

 

I know things will get better with time and the windows are a great little look into the future, It will be so amazing to feel ok once

again.  If you are struggling i promise it does get better as time goes on. I certainly feel better than i did 2 months ago, it's just

a shame these withdrawals take so long !

 

Anyway, i am going to keep plodding in the right direction and each day clean is a days healing.

 

Best wishes, Kev xx

I have similar windows and waves, but don't handle these changes nearly as well as you seem to be.  Your attitude is very positive and commendable.  I hope very much that these waves turn into wide open windows for you soon.

Thanks for the nice comments. Mark I tapered and went from 5mg down to .6 then jumped in 2 to 3 months.

 

It was'nt slow but it was at a quick ish pace because thats what i asked the doctor to do for me.

 

Being off them is amazing, i have a sense of freedom and i don't have to do it anymore.
